Uri Aran

Uri Aran’s (American, b. 1977, Jerusalem) practice encompasses a wide range of media and subject matter, including film, sculpture, drawing, painting and assemblage. Throughout his practice, Aran constructs a language of indeterminate signifiers in an ongoing pursuit of graphic and linguistic systems, and the pushing of these systems to the point of disintegration. ‘The discord of meaning in language is something I’m interested in’, he has explained. ‘I don’t know if it’s because English is not my mother tongue; I see a delay of meaning. I see things as mediated—almost everything is quoted.’
