EMBODIMENT ARTWORK BY RONEN AZULAY

In Pulse, Azulay continues his tactile investigation into rhythm, presence, and internal awareness through a new visual lexicon. Departing from the circular motifs that have long characterized his practice, this series marks a formal and emotional shift toward linear structures that foreground organic, undulating intervals. This visual language that feels less enclosed, more open to interruption, improvisation, and directional flow. This evolution parallels the artist’s own trajectory from anxiety and constraint toward clarity, forward motion, and presence

Azulay’s materials—hand-cut textiles, repurposed leathers, and layered threads—are composed with a deliberate sensitivity to both repetition and variation. The surface of each work is constructed through a process of incremental assembly, where stripes appear not as decorative pattern but as registers of tempo, irregular yet precise. The resulting compositions suggest an embodied rhythm discovered and refined through the act of making

Despite their outward simplicity, the works in Pulse are charged with quiet complexity. The stripes vary in width, orientation, and density, generating subtle visual tensions that mirror the irregularities of lived experience. In this way, Azulay challenges the viewer to slow down—to move beyond the immediate graphic impact and engage with the layered nuances of material, rhythm, and repetition. Each work is an invitation to listen, to feel, and to resonate with the pulse that surrounds us all

Embodiment captures a precise and intimate calibration of rhythm, material, and intention. The linear structure—fluid yet composed—reflects a sustained exploration of internal tempo. Communicating through restraint, each layer evidences technical refinement and spatial awareness, marking a pivotal moment in Azulay’s trajectory towards spiritual exploration and personal growth

In its structure and surface, the work reflects a disciplined attentiveness—a commitment to incremental progress and a quieter, deeper form of authorship. Embodiment crystallizes the Pulse series core inquiry: how form can be used to register not only movement and time, but also transformation
