“Siamese Twins”
Written by Galia Bar Or
A naked miniature woman stars in Ayelet Carmi’s cabinet of the world,
among floating representations of natural and man-made products,
strange plants, scientific fantasies and derivatives of art from distant
times and places. A daring act for one woman, alone, with such liberty of
natural, uninhibited nakedness, and without any pretensions – to represent a model of the universe or to project subtle affinities between a marvelous macrocosm and a microcosm crammed with signs. A naked woman, not a representation of the seasons, nor a woman’s body embodying the cyclicality of nature.

Other representations of nature appear on the white museum wall,
painted in tempera, and interweaving a variety of art languages: huge
branches of a pair of uprooted trees in the style of high painting, bare of
leaves, looking as though they have lost their gravitational force and have
been grafted into one another like Siamese twins, troubling the mind like
the two-headed calf on display at the Beit Sturman Museum nearby. The
“strangenesses” of nature have a double role in Ayelet Carmi’s cabinet of
the world. As a representative model and as an eccentric phenomenon,
they embody, on the face of it, the entire range of the universe’s
possibilities. Opposite them, thin branches and leaves are interlaced, like shadows or phantoms of branches that have been fixated in gold and
silver leaves, which bring to mind decorative painting in the style of Art
Nouveau...
