About the Item

Hemed’s paintings inhabit a space between realism and intimacy. Depicting contemplative male figures in moments of vulnerability, his work is marked by an emotional depth that resists easy categorisation. In this new series, the artist continues his exploration of masculinity, solitude, and interiority. Each composition invites viewers to pause and reflect, capturing transient gestures and expressions that suggest stories left untold. Born in Israel, Yisrael Dror Hemed is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans painting, photography, and performance. His work often reflects a deeply personal perspective, informed by his experiences growing up in a religious community and later navigating his identity in contemporary Israeli society. Trained at Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Hemed has exhibited internationally and is recognised for his subtle yet poignant investigations of gender, memory, and desire.
