SYNOPSIS

From the Madonna, the bereaved mother of God, to Lilith, the rebel, hunted by men and their priests and to the refugee of Gaza or Aleppo, the figure of the veiled woman recalls various real or mythical characters and situations. The one walking elegantly in front of me one day in Oslo revealed to me this many-layered depiction. The light reflected at each sway in the folds of her satin veil made her both opaque and pellucid, so close and so far away, in space and time; a double movement of capture and liberation. ‘Epiphany’ unfolds her many-layered and diachronic presence
