Dina Goldstein: Black Book

On the threshold between performance, visual art, and objects' theater, Dina Goldstein's works seek to evoke surreal fantasy worlds, drawing on her passion for the marvelous and a desire to bring beauty and magic into daily life. The encounter between low-tech means, video and screening technology creates a meta-realistic experience, perched between dream and waking and between mystery and imagination. Her images are taken from old books about art history, botany, biology, and the circus. These endow her works with a nostalgic-enigmatic dimension, seeking to activate the observer's imagination.
