Tell Me About Your Sleep
당신의 잠에 대해 말해줘
Tell Me About Your Sleep
Tell Me About Your Sleep is an evolving archive that navigates the delicate balance between creative practice and maternal experience, featuring the voices of 20 North American mother artists and scholars since its inception in 2022.
This publication, Tell Me About Your Sleep, highlights the artists’ experiences of “mothering”—the act of becoming and being a mother—through social, cultural, and political frameworks. This socially engaged art project aims to elevate and legitimize the perspectives of mother artists within contemporary discourse.
The collective’s first theme, “sleep,” is explored through a range of lenses, reflecting how the sleep of mothers and children becomes deeply intertwined—sometimes resulting in exhaustion or disorientation, other times producing surreal and transformative states. Through installation, video, photography, and text-based archives, the work examines how caregiving, creative work, and labor intersect. It will culminate in a roundtable discussion featuring mother artists and scholars currently working in Korea.
Kinderstube
Kinderstaube studies, 2025 XY-Plotter, Archival ink pens on varied papersKinderstube is a German word referring to how someone was raised by their parents, implying discipline and politeness. This is a visual study of objects from my home, an embroidery ‘Sampler’, a book that I keep. As I trace, I process how this early twentieth-century German culture was maintained in my parents’ childhood in Israel—as a strongly protected bubble of their parents. I explore how my mother’s childhood, and her mental commitment to hold tight to her parents’ world from vanishing, seeped into my own. It is a test to my imagined responsibility of guard this falling apart textile, particularly after immigrating myself. The question becomes: Am I
continuing my family European nomadic notion? Whereas the only exception is my parents who stayed for more then one generation in Israel.

SYNTHETICS
Exhibition at Frontispace Gallery, Sage Center for the Arts at University of Rochester, NY, October 14th -November 18th 2022 “Being a parent, artist, earning a living and teaching, I create in an occupied space. By placing a grid and initiate movement I am trying to control and reverse myself. The ‘Grid’ is not unified, it is contradictory And grounds multiple viewpoints, crossing lines of binary divisions of logic systems of the virtual and the real existence.”
Frontispace is pleased to announce Synthetics, an exhibition of work by Gali Greenspan. Greenspan’s solo show at Frontispace showcases a new body of work that resulted from a set of synthesized images and analog video footage dveloped into moving images sequances, printed frames re-orgenized in dimensional spaces, and digital XY-plotter drawings. These large prints on mass-produced carpets made specifically for this space, documents the materiality of analog systems; the inherent glitches and noise replicates Greenspan’s own emotional duality of upheaval and joy.

This show presents aspects of participation in the political sphere, in the context of history or present, in the possibilities of speaking and healing. being an observer while at the same time being an actor. Inspired by Arendt thought, in the political sphere action and speech are coequal and to speak is to be political. “Speechless action would no longer be action because there would no longer be an actor” (Hanna Arendt, The Human Condition, University of Chicago Press, 1958, pg.179).
