Elinor Milchan

In the process of her work, Milchan explores the experience of time and what this experience entails, through the phenomenology of light and multiple panel composition, both in video and photography. Light being the “essence” of photography, Milchan examines and explores the object being photographed through it. Elinor’s unique technique develops and deepens within the processes she creates in this investigation, ‘a powerful, lyrical vision, removed from galleries, shows, art strategies and aesthetic exercises, a vision owing itself only to the artist.” *

Curators and critics alike, both in Israel and abroad, from the Tel Aviv Museum (Nili Goren), the LACMA (Robert Sobieszek) to Art in Art America (Daniel Belasco), have praised the inventiveness of her unique techniques, describing it as “liberating the medium”, reminding “us that the essential of photography is light itself.” **

Milchan’s exhibitions and work have been featured and reviewed in various international art publications, and included in contemporary art auctions such as Sotheby’s, Christie’s and Phillips de Pury.
