Victoria Grinman

I am an artist, painter, and graphic designer. My work is characterized by an optimistic, vibrant, and light-filled visual language. I was drawn to the world of art from a very young age, attending painting classes starting at age three. As a little girl, I was full of joy and energy—just like my paintings today. I used to doodle on absolutely anything I could get my hands on; art has always been an inseparable part of my identity. The Turning Point & Rehabilitation Following a severe car accident when I was seven years old, I sustained complex injuries; I am paralyzed from the neck down and dependent on a ventilator. Throughout my intensive rehabilitation process, I refused to give up on my greatest passion. I learned how to paint all over again—this time, using only my mouth. Painting became a profound emotional and therapeutic outlet for me—a sort of substitute for a therapist, through which I release and process everything I hold inside. Exhibitions & Professional Career First Exhibition: As early as the 8th grade, I showcased my work in my very first exhibition at the "Monart" Museum of Art in Ashdod. Solo Exhibition (2022): I returned to the Monart Museum with an emotional solo exhibition featuring 45 of my original artworks. Current Work: Today, I continue to create physical art at home with the support of my caregiver and art teacher. Simultaneously, I create in the digital realm using a specialized mouth-controlled mouse and work as a professional graphic designer. My Artistic Vision Through my art, I invite viewers to look beyond external differences. My work places human inner beauty and the infinite resilience of the spirit and willpower at the very center.
