Ella Littwitz investigates political, social, and cultural landscapes by appropriating and shifting specific elements connected to the land. Pivotal to her practice is the constant desire of humans to create sovereign ideologies by drawing limits, borders, and frontiers, sometimes even controlling nature and moving soil. Littwitz’s interest in a specific stretch of land - namely Israel and Palestinian territories - stems from its status as a crossroads of religions, geography, and politics; water, soil, and sky; mythologies, beliefs, and momentous transitions. Her works echo its biblical and modern narratives, presenting us with diverse examples of transition, transfiguration, and the formation of political constructs through acts of belief. Her work has been acquired by The Israel Museum (Jerusalem, IL), Kunsthaus Zürich (CH), Vehbi Koç Foundation (Istanbul, TR), Tel Aviv Museum of Art (IL), S.M.A.K., the Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art - Ghent (BE) and the Centre Pompidou (Paris, FR).
