Weight of the work including frame is 16 kg (Shipping available in Israel only) The Matryoshka – known in English as a “Russian Doll” or in Hebrew as a “Babushka” – is a famous traditional symbol of Russia. Despite this, its true origins lie in Japan. Originally a cultic idol of the deity Fukurouju – The Happy God. The word “matryoshka” derives from the word for “mother”, and signifies life – a mother gives life to her daughter, the daughter gives life to a granddaughter, and so on. In this drawing, a matryoshka is divided into a 15 puzzle, with a female body being divided into pieces which transform into a commodity, like raw meat. Is a woman just a body? What does it mean to be a Russian woman in Israel? Will every Russian woman receive the label “Russian whore”?
