What do we do when it hurts? What does it mean to have an open wound?

‘Panacea' is a one month programme exploring the boundaries of the wounded body as a basic platform for understanding unsolved conflicts. With an intensive schedule of two exhibitions, performance programming and a round table session, the project aims to bring together artists, curators, theoreticians and medical researchers to meditate and express their ideas about the wound, questioning how open trauma - whether physical, political or geographical - can become an opportunity to revise bodily experience.

Hannah Honeywill / Michal Baror / Noga Inbar / Omer Even-Paz / Tessa Tapscott
