Eyal Segal
We are pleased to present DELUGE, a solo exhibition by Israeli artist Eyal Segal. This marks his first exhibition at LOKO GALLERY in seven years, following his debut solo show in Japan, GROUND LEVEL, in 2018.
Born in 1982 in Arad, Israel, Segal has German and Indian roots. He studied at Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Tel Aviv and previously served as the studio director for renowned video artist Sigalit Landau.
This exhibition presents a mixed-media installation featuring several video works, including LEVIATHAN (2021), filmed in the Kasukabe Underground Flood Protection Tank in Saitama, Japan, which was showcased at the latest Tel Aviv Biennale and received international recognition.
Alongside it, Segal presents his latest video performance and a new series of large- and small-scale paintings of the sea, both titled DELUGE.
Filmed at the end of summer 2023, DELUGE takes its title from the concept of a “great flood.” In the video, Segal moves in a circular path across a field, his motion resembling a prayer—wandering through the currents of fate while seeking to avoid impending catastrophe.
Exactly one month after the release of this work, on October 7, the world witnessed the shocking terrorist attack known as the “Al-Aqsa Flood.” The unintended coincidence of these events imbued this work with profound new layers of meaning.
Along with the paintings of the sea, which suggest uncertainty, this exhibition encourages the viewer to interpret its themes in a variety of ways.
