Shir Shkalim

Multidisciplinary designer.

Graduated from the Department of Interior Design, Building and Environment, Shenkar College, Ramat Gan.

Shir Shkalim is engaged in the endless search for a multisensory experience derived from a combination of creative fields. Her works focus on the gaps and overlaps between different disciplines – space, architecture, sound, music, light, manifestation, experience, art. She does so with the aim of awakening all the senses, sensations, thoughts and dynamics that coexist within the moment itself.

Among her projects: studio design for a music program (flute); design, planning and construction of art installations; curation and costume for a private gallery (Surf The Sky); lighting, spatial manifestations and guerrilla actions, art direction for a music clip (Michal Amit); VJ, concept development, content writing and social media marketing (Eureka Design Ltd).

In the attached photo: a crystal field performance created for Midburn 2021 in collaboration with Camp Sunrise. The crystal field consists of 11 objects of simple geometric shapes that function as prisms, “imprisoning” sunrays and “propelling” them out in a variety of shapes and colors. The objects’ shifting position in relation to the sun’s movement produces a space in constant transformation, generating visual illusions in the desert landscape that challenge the optical perception of the human eye. Light (and its refraction) turns into a cosmic and spiritual source; a material that creates space. The installation allows for a renewed perspective and acute observation of natural phenomena and human existence.

Eliya David

User experience designer and graphic designer.

Graduated in Visual Communication from Shenkar College, Ramat Gan.

Her personal and collaborative projects are at the intersection of art and design. They often search for a symbiosis between traditional techniques and innovative thinking, and use technological tools.

Her projects seek to deepen our understanding of human nature and of the mind as a mirror to the outside world. They combine visual art, sound, spatial considerations and interaction – together creating a multi-sensory experience.

Or Fainaru

Lives and works in Haifa.

Graduated in Art and History of the Jewish People, University of Haifa (2020); holds a teaching certificate from the University of Haifa (2021).

My works exist in ever-changing timelines and touch different strata of emotions in society. I observe and draw based on snapshots in an attempt to put myself in the position of others, recreating their views, emotions, and even the smallest aspects that are typically pushed to the margins of one’s life. In the video piece that I am making, I choose to focus on negligible actions creating a rhythm that gives others a chance to observe this action through different eyes.

Daniella Bella CandleShine

Lives and works in Tel Aviv.

Works in different media such as drawing, video and sculpture. Each action requires its own material.

Graduated with honors in Fine Art from Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, Jerusalem (2020); was an exchange student at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków (2019).

My body is an important creative partner. It appears in my works as an actor, an image or a measurement unit. As a raw material it is easily available, malleable, compliant and inexpensive. The fact that I own it endows me with freedom of action.

For the past two years I have been drawing with wall putty and charcoal, using a technique that I keep developing and through which I keep evolving. My drawings are made in motion, as I stand in front of the wall and mobilize my entire body. Movement is an integral part of the drawing itself, as is the space in which the drawing is being produced. I explore the physicality of the act of drawing, the spiritual charge inherent to the creative act, as well as the material tension between the triviality and coarseness of the wall putty on the one hand, and the delicacy and fragility of the charcoal on the other.
