Since the early 1990s Steve Sabella (*1975 in Jerusalem) has
consistently been creating cycles of work that comment on each
other: Jerusalem in Exile (2006), Exit (2007), In Exile (2008), In
Transition (2010), Euphoria (2010), Beyond Euphoria (2012),
Metamorphosis (2012), and Independence (2013) comprise a signficant
tableau of possible transitions and processes of dissolution
between world and image, image and world. The book reads time and
history out of the photographs and thus describes the genesis of
Sabella's photographic oeuvre under the aspects of exile, identity,
migration, and the divided topologies of the 21st century. Sabella
uses photography as the artistic language of existential exile. His
relationship to the medium is powerful. "At the end which me am I
in us?" asks the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish. In this sense,
Sabella researches the construction of identity.Exhibitions:
