Raya Tiltan Shapira

Born in Jerusalem. Emerged from the world of design: from graphic, through textile, to spatial and environmental design. Color is the central motif in her work. Through it, she explores and defines light using figurative elements that are both psychedelic and harmonious. Her work draws inspiration from her immediate natural surroundings, from her early professional world, and from the realms of imagination and dreams. The works evoke a meditative sensation that invites slow contemplation and reconnects the viewer with the present moment. Works with a range of materials and techniques, including pencils, ink, pastel, markers, watercolor, and embroidery.
