The installation by artist Haim Sokol "Snowfall" was created in memory of those killed in Auschwitz and is a mural depicting birds in a winter forest and "snowfall" from white rope ladders. As conceived by the author, rope ladders symbolize a means of escape or rescue. The installation Snowfall invites the viewer to follow the author’s associations.
Haim Sokol creates works in the genres of installation, sculpture, video and performance. In his work, he addresses the topic of alienation, isolation and broken ties in the modern world. Working with archival materials and private documents, the artist reveals the history of the twentieth century through the prism of private destinies, explores the problems of historical memory and the modern socio-political situation.
