Everything in the world began with a yes. One molecule said yes to another molecule and life was born.

Exhibition

REVOLVING
by Tamar Ettun

May 26 – July 11, 2026

Dreamsong is thrilled to present our second solo exhibition with Brooklyn-based artist Tamar Ettun (b. 1982). REVOLVING features new and recent interdisciplinary work including Lilit's Aluminum Drawings (2025-2026), Purple Placenta (2024) - an interactive installation, IVF Documents (2025) - video work, a new soft sculpture as well as a series of works on paper.


Since 2020, Ettun’s multidisciplinary work Lilit the Empathic Demon has centered the eponymous aerial spirit demon with origins in Sumerian, Akkadian, and Judaic mythology. In the 2nd-7th centuries, artist-healers created spells, drawings, and talismanic objects to trap demons who were often named Lilit. Conceived in part as a rejoinder to taboos surrounding – and attacks on – reproductive health and freedoms, REVOLVING looks to ancient trauma-healing rituals to reflect on experiences of contemporary maternity.
