From the “Conversion” Project

Rona Segal’s work, Flesh and Blood, takes place in the theater storeroom where Anton Ostrovsky works. In his free time at work he dresses up as different characters and fabricates an imaginary theater where he alone acts as all the characters. The carnival-like atmosphere and the multiplicity of costumes uncover Ostrovsky’s character, and underscore the difficulty in completely overhauling one’s image.
