Gallery Open House: "If You Thirst for a Homeland"

See Israeli glass artist Dafna Kaffeman's work on display, which consists of several series of works from different periods of her career, as early as 2006 to newly made in 2021. In her Tel Aviv studio, she creates flame-work glass plants and insects, a process that she said can take months, and often combines them with text from literature or from written or spoken media printed or embroidered on soft, white fabric.
