About the artwork:
Dealing with the destruction of architecture as a metaphor for loss, my paintings are an interpretation of news photographs from Palestine. The photograph is my way to look at the Palestinian reality, but at the same time it is a barrier between this reality and me. While choosing photographs from the Internet or from published archives, sources that are available to anyone, I am aware of the ambivalence of those images that are both documentation and manipulation.

About the artist:

Born in Jerusalem, Israel, Noa moved to New York City to pursue a Master’s degree in Fine Arts at the School of Visual Arts. After completing her studies Noa stayed in New York City where she currently lives and works. In 2010 she has been awarded participation in the AIM program at the Bronx museum, invited to Yaddo artist residency in New York State and participated in the Triangle Arts Workshop in Brooklyn. Her work was recently part of a group show in Lombard Freid Projects that has been reviewed by the New York Times.
