About the artist:

Michal Kirat was born in central Israel and grew up in the country surrounded by nature – fields full of wheat, orchards blossoming, winds that can bring the heat of the deserts as well as the fresh ocean air. Birds migrating from the North to the warmer lands before the winter and then passing once again in the spring on the way back. Warm waters of the Mediterranean sea and its ever-changing colours.

Colours are an important inspiration in her work. For example; the blue sky, green fields, and red and yellow flowers in the spring. Orange of the Sun as it is set down the horizon and of the fruits in the orchards. Aquamarine of the Mediterranean, Turquoise of the Dead Sea.

Ever-changing colors of the Sea of Galilee (called in Hebrew Lake Kinneret) Colours of the winter rain clouds. There were also colors of the traditional Yemenite garments made and worn by her grandmother. Michal grew up in the atmosphere of Israel in the 60s and 70s, a time when different cultures brought to the country began to mix and fuse together in what was to become a source of endless creativity.
