Sharon Glazberg is a multi-disciplinary artist working in the media of photography, video, performance and installation. Sharon was born in a Kibbutz, spending most of her childhood traveling. moving with her family to Iran at the age of two, then back to Israel changing city every couple of years. Traveling/wondering is a main key in Glazberg’s works. She uses photography and video to document interventions in her environment. She begins her process as an archeologist, trying to understand how natural and social tractions have formed contemporary environments over time. in a way, one can see Glazber’s works as souvenirs of her traveling. she is interested in the symbiotic relationships between the human body and its surroundings, be they human, agricultural, or of the animal world. Glazberg documents, exposes layers of time, and deconstructs the sites where she works, sometimes violently, to fill them with movement and novel meanings.
Her works have been shown in numerous group exhibitions in venues such as Bergen Kunsthall, The Jewish Museum in New York , The 2000 Cuban Biennial in Havana, The Petach Tikva Museum of Art, Ashdod Museum of Art, Galerie Rabouan Moussion in Paris, The Negev Museum of Art, Rockefeller Museum, Jerusalem, MoBY (Museums of Bat Yam), and CCA Tel Aviv.
