ג'קי פערל // Jackie Pearl

In her debut creation at HaZira Theatre, artist Jackie Pearl presents “Georgia Buzz”, a theatrical-visual journey moving between myth and personal memory, between a towering metal crane and a world of feathers, between the charms of entertainment and the rituals of dismemberment.
At its center lies a charged relationship between father and daughter, appearing through the figures of both mythological and personal fathers: Daedalus, Abraham, and King Minos, alongside the image of the artist’s own father.

The work weaves a language of puppets, objects, video, and visual theatre to explore the thin boundary between love and harm, between wonder and cruelty. Images of animals, magicians, and machines break apart and reassemble to form a world saturated with longing, terror, and grace.
It is a vision in which what breaks is not repaired, but instead gives birth to new, surprising and painful creatures. Among them, a single bird: delicate, elusive, perhaps capable of carrying upon its wings the story of redemption.
