Gayl Sharabi's art is conceptual. She uses a variety of paints and materials
including wood, plastic, glass, plaster, wire, and paper. "Music plays through me
and the brush is the dance," says Gayl Sharabi of her creative process. "It is
always the journey that is the most enlightening." Her art is an expression of
scientific and philosophical ideas, and her aim is to open a door for us, to
contemplate her work, which varies between abstract and figurative.
Inspired by her personal history, Gayl's art nevertheless rises above self-reflection
and aims to address, among other topics, the tribulations of contemporary
society. Her figurative works, which feature silhouettes, contain an aspect of
social commentary. Her more abstract works bring forth a sublime feeling. The
world is a complex place, these works tell us, while the creative process provides
order and ultimately a means of conveying ideas and feelings to whoever
contemplates her canvases. Gayl Sharabi divides her personal and creative time
between Israel and the United States.
