Din Bar (b. 1995). BFA in fine arts Bezalel (2023). My practice spans installation, painting, drawing, and sculpture.

In my recent works I explore lightness and flight. combining lightweight sculptures inspired by sails with small drawings featuring imagery of flying machines, magical eggs, and fairytale-like figures set within disassembling spaces.

Im also developing a body of works around Mr. Nobody- a phantom figure through which I explore the myths of the artist, the magician and the clown.  

As a student at Michal Helphman’s studio, I was asked to think of a space that is meaningful to me, and I thought of the theater storeroom at Ben Shemen (where I grew up)—a dusty, dimly lit, messy place filled with piles of costumes, fabrics, puppets, and furniture, where I would sometimes accompany my father while he worked.

This space inspired my graduate project at Bezalel, No One Listens, No One Hears (2023)—a total installation that combine theater, folklore, and personal myth. through the abandoned studio, storeroom, or mental space of an imagined artist who transformed into a giant moth. This phantom figure continues to influence my work, allowing me to play with the myth of the artist and to explore themes of inspiration, transformation, and communication with inner worlds.
