Hello,
I'm Gal Shahar.
I am an Israeli photographer who graduated from the Photography Department at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design. My artistic work has been exhibited in numerous places, both locally and internationally. I perceive photography as a powerful medium for storytelling, allowing me to convey intricate narratives without using words. I derive inspiration from literature and incorporate hidden and enigmatic moments into my work to capture the viewer's imagination. In my artistic practice, I emphasize the role of light, clarity, and symmetry in composition. As a result, the photographs are visually appealing as well as uncluttered. My ultimate objective is to balance visual appeal with narrative depth, generating captivating stories that linger long.
