A Day in the Life of a Pomegranate Exhibition at Janine Rubeiz Gallery

The Janine Rubeiz Gallery is hosting an exhibition by Afaf Zurayk and Cornelia Krafft called “A Day in the Life of a Pomegranate”. The series of fifteen ink drawings is the key to the film unfolding “a day in the life of a woman.”

In the film Cornelia translates Afaf’s two-dimensional rendering into a physical relationship that explores the symbolism of this timeless fruit.

The work of both artists is a collaboration about intimacy and opulence that is driven by a deep need for clarity concerning the use of the female body.

In their hands, the pomegranate becomes the symbol for womanhood that emerges in layers reflecting the beauty and mystery of love and life within a zoomed frame of eternity.
