Imitating Michal Joy – a new exhibition at the Vitrוna gallery

Photographer and dancer meet on a night ride on the Haifa subway.
A random conversation between them turns into a curious voyage of impulses, urges and passion.

The result is an intriguing photography exhibition called "Imitating Michal Joy", by Yigal Felix, Michal Gil and Shay Govhary, which deals with the emotions, urges and impulses that result from a random meeting between two strangers.

The face of Michal Joy is a mirror to the dark but rather pleasant secrets that are hidden inside each of us. The exhibition presents 46 photographs and a catalogue which is actually Yigal's diary, where he had documented the entire 2 years creation process.
