Debora Hirsch
Firmamento (Mandioca)

2020

About the Item

Firmamento (Mandioca), 2020 Acrylic and oil on canvas 34 x 34 in Themes of power and control are salient in Debora Hirsch’s most expansive series to date, "Firmamento." The chosen title refers to a biblical conception of the Earth’s makeup: in the Old Testament, it was believed that when God created the Earth, He created a solid dome (the “firmament”) which made up the sky and held the entirety of the visible cosmos. Hirsch’s title is not necessarily religious. Rather, her poetic cosmological reference aims to uncover questions and ideas surrounding human perception, constructed worlds, colonizations, and bounded / boundless sensibilities. It is, in a sense, a meditation on the complex (and unequal) harmony of human life across varying temporalities, simultaneously replete with beauty and ugliness.
