Still Life: First Observation
This charcoal drawing was created in 2015, when the artist was only 12 years old. It represents her very first serious practice in observation and learning how to measure shapes and space in the mind. At the time, this process felt completely strange, difficult, and challenging—almost like learning a brand-new language or unlocking an invisible superpower. The objects were carefully arranged on a table and left untouched for weeks just to train the eyes. Even though still life is not her primary style today, this piece offers a unique glimpse into the very beginning of her artistic technique and exploration a decade ago. Visual Description A drawing featuring a classic still life composition that brings together a vintage kerosene lantern, a clay pot, fruit, and draped fabric. The piece uses strong light and shadow to give the objects a realistic, three-dimensional look and a bit of mystery. The drawing comes ready to hang in a beautifully styled frame, including a white mat board, a vintage cream-colored frame, and matte glass to prevent reflections and keep the art safe.
Ayelet Hashachar
Ayelet Hashachar’s work grows out of her experiences with people, nature, music and dance, prayer and solitude. Her work moves between femininity and the body, bright colors and delicate drawings, and darker, mysterious images. She is drawn to different worlds that may seem opposite at times, but beneath their differences she feels something they share — a sense of life and a feeling that awaken in her and find their way into her art. Ayelet Hashachar does not try to show reality exactly as it looks, but to express how she experiences it inside herself. Through figures, lines, movement and shapes, she gives these experiences a form that goes beyond their outer appearance. She began making art at a young age; at 13, she held her first solo exhibition in Tel Aviv and studied at the Center for Excellence in Art in Be’er Sheva. For those who look closely at her work, it can become a kind of open book to her inner world.
