BEN MASHIAH

Ben Mashiach (b. 1995) is a painter based in Haifa, working primarily with spray paint on wood. His work focuses on a reduced visual language, both in terms of material and color. Through a limited palette - typically shades of grey - he develops a painting practice that emphasizes texture, presence, and materiality. The choice of wood as a primary surface is not incidental; the interplay between the paint's absorption and rejection creates a subtle and unexpected tension that becomes an integral part of the image.
