Cabessa presents a new video work “Wonderful and Gone” at the exhibition “An Asana Moment“, curated by Raz Samira at the MUZA Museum.
The exhibition emerged from the current reality in Israel to answer a basic mental need for respite, for some distance from the painful, frightening events, and to address some amorphic, abstract, calm healing for the soul. The exhibition presents video works and photographs created by 23 international contemporary artists, merging into a unique mixture of sound, color and form.

The exhibition’s title comes from yoga asanas, postures that align the body during practice and meditation. Asanas help harmonize and quieten the mind and focus awareness. They are known to release pain and to heal; when performed mindfully, with attention to the breath, they can break down stress and mental obstacles. Asanas bring relief and a sense of satisfaction and tranquility. In this exhibition, we wish to introduce some of the qualities of yoga asanas into our reality, if only for a moment.

Two of Cabessa’s paintings: “Radical Hope” and “The Heavens Matter” are featured at this exhibition “October Seventh” that curates works by 25 artists whose creative activity reflects the atrocious times Israeli society is facing since October 7th. Some of them are living artists, some deceased – either murdered on October 7th or died during the ongoing war. The new exhibition wishes to frame a current situation and to record the unique creative burst that is well felt among Israelis since the war began.

“Material Imagination” curated by Dalit Matatyahu, Senior Curator of Israeli Art, Tel Aviv Museum of Art.

Two of Miriam Cabessa’s paintings are currently showing at the new permanent display of the Israeli art collection: “Material Imagination”, which includes works by Israel’s leading artists.
Material Imagination is a model of thinking conceived by philosopher Gaston Bachelard during years of delving into the four elements—earth, air, water, and fire—and their incarnations in the imagination and in art.
