Maya Attoun

Maya Attoun lives and works in Tel-Aviv. "The individual carries the architecture of life and death in his bodily measurements" says Attoun, who keeps on examining the gap between the inner and outer spaces and the way they are overlapping it, and manifest the struggle between the body and the forced shapes surrounding it.

When I Heard the Learned Astronomer

by Walt Whitman

When I heard the learn’d astronomer,

When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,

When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide,

and measure them,

When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with

much applause in the lecture-room,

How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,

Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself,

In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,

Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
