Ori Gersht — Ghost: Olive 6
Ori Gersht

Ghost: Olive 6

Ori Gersht's *Ghost: Olive 6* is a large-scale chromogenic print, flush-mounted, that captures an ancient olive tree in a hauntingly ethereal, overexposed light, dissolving its form into an almost spectral presence. The image hovers between documentation and abstraction, evoking themes of memory, history, and loss tied to the contested landscapes of the Middle East. Gersht's meticulous photographic process transforms the enduring, gnarled tree into a fragile, luminous apparition suspended in timeless ambiguity.
