Providence

The series "Providence" by Neta Elkayam is based on black-and-white family photographs found in the trash, which came to her in a "providential" manner. By painting herself as a "witness" in these scenes, she creates a form of "providence" within her work. Although the subjects discarded these images, they did not escape Elkayam's watchful eye, prompting reflection on the unseen forces that shape our lives and our enduring connection to the past.
