On Thursday, July 25 at 6 pm, our current AIR_Frankfurt guest artists Merav Kamel and Halil Balabin will talk about their artistic practice and their project ideas. The three-month residency in Frankfurt is a cooperation with Artport, Tel Aviv.

Merav Kamel and Halil Balabin are a Tel Aviv-based collaborative duo working together since 2012. Their artistic practice is the outcome of their collective intuition; they follow their instincts to create works that combine absurdity and humor with history, sexuality, and fantasy. Their work is frequently rooted on an inner joke or ironic anecdotes from their daily lives that mix into widespread critical claim. They use with such as fabric, wood, metal, and ceramic to create sculptural dolls and large-scale drawing installations.
