Ilanit Scharff Vigodsky
It is joyful, unpredictable, playful, defiant, energetic, full of humor and free of stipulations and prior expectations. Vigodsky doesn’t write in any of the excepted styles of Hebrew poetry of the ages , be it the angry– political, the dense–intellectual, the touching–religious or the thoughtfully designed, but in a style that she very much constructed for herself, a style that can be called material . and maybe: malleable.
For her, words are material, and she thinks about them as a painter, sculptor, constellation or video artist think about their material: as something that to make art out of, you need to stir, spread, spill, fling, stretch, knead, cut, melt, squeeze, photograph, document, bounce, make it dance, stimulate, to stack, build a tower out of, bury in the ground , see how it reacts to music, to light, to dark, to electricity, to fire – until the song is made.
