The long cascading photograph touches on Monosov’s sentiment of feeling alien anywhere she lives – whether be it in Israel, which was once her home but now feels far removed from her life, or in Europe where she is not a citizen and must negotiate the challenges of an immigrant status. This particular work is a 360 degree view of the Judean Desert. Technically many borders are present in the landscape between Israel and the Palestinian territories, but to the fauna and the animals, and in this case, Monosov who stands in the middle, nature offers only the great expanse, unwilling to accept human boundaries. In turn, the frame is symbolic of man made divisions and choices of territory.

The Biblical Artifacts are a series of aged bronzes which blur the line between what is authentic and what is fake. The ironic title draws attention to the contradiction between the Bible – based on beliefs and faith – and archeology, a science – based on proof and truth. By extension, one could read here a parallel to the history of Israel, a country whose roots are legitimized by Biblical verses.
