In her sculptures and moving-image works, the Berlin- and Jerusalem-based artist addresses issues such as nationalism, the construction of communities, and the body\u2019s relation to specific histories of place.<\/p>\n<p>The centrepiece of her exhibition is the feature-length film, <i>A magical substance flows into me<\/i> (2015), which draws on the radio program <i>Oriental Music<\/i>, made in 1936-37 for the Palestine Broadcasting Service by the German-Jewish ethnomusicologist Robert Lachmann. To realise her film, Manna travelled across Palestine\/Israel to meet the groups Lachmann had studied, playing his recordings and making new ones of her own. Her exchanges with Kurdish, Moroccan, and Yemenite Jews, Samaritans, members of urban and rural Palestinian communities, Bedouins, and Coptic Christians in their homes and places of work and worship are interspersed with scenes of her parents in her family home in East Jerusalem, entangling the artist in the complex history of her hometown. The film explores the complexities embedded in language, as well as desire and the aural set against the notion of impossibility. It attempts to disassemble false binaries and challenge the logic of partition and segregation, as well as the colonial discourses underpinning them. Manna seeks, instead, to address the question of Palestine through the lens of 1948 and its consequences, while calling for a multifaceted Palestine, reimagined through the possibilities of sound and listening.<\/p>\n<p>In the corridor is a new, site-specific installation consisting of a series of small-scale sculptures perched on a stage-like construction. These objects evoke vases, bodily fragments or archaeological findings and resonate with the musical performances in the film. As Manna stated in a recent interview: \u201cWhen you hear something you have to understand it because [\u2026] it\u2019s becoming a part of you. Listening collapses the division of self and other, or of singular and plural, or inside and outside. [\u2026] This idea of the body as a medium and as a place of resonance has been something that has followed me throughout the making of these works. The sculptures are vessels, similar to our bodies, that may be filled with fluids, air or sound; sound is taking place in space but is also spreading within us.\u201d Read the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Chisenhale_Interviews_Jumana_Manna.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interwiev <\/a>made by Chisenhale Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>The film <i>A magical substance flows into me<\/i> is co-commissioned by the Sharjah Art Foundation and Chisenhale Gallery with Malm\u00f6 Konsthall and the 2016 Biennale of Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>The film is 70 minutes.
