Dr Yonat Nitzan-Green

I have completed a Fine-Art practice-led doctorate research, entitled: ‘Saying it through the maternal body: understanding maternal subjectivity through art practice’, in 2010. My practice includes conversation, installation, performative acts, drawing and painting. Kibbutz childhood, maternal subjectivity and the Palestinian Israeli conflict form a continuous ‘field of enquiry’ from which my art emerges. I read psychoanalytic theories; the poetic phenomenology of Gaston Bachelard; and ‘new materialism’ theories by Jane Bennett and Karen Barad. I am particularly interested in conversation as a research methodology and the dialogical process, both in painting and in groups work (PIRG and CAS).
