Hadas Duchan
Visual artist
Hadas Duchan born in 1988, resides and works around the world.
Duchan holds a BFA from the Bezalel Academy of art and design.
Her works function as research laboratories that drifted away from the scientific realm into the metaphysical. Hadas’s work process usually begins by researching a phenomenon, black holes, architecture, mold, and sterilized fruit flies are just a few examples. After studying the phenomenon in depth, thoughts become objects or structures on the space-time continuum.
Her works have been featured in solo and group exhibits in many galleries and museums including Barbur Gallery, The Museum of the History of Jerusalem in Tower of David, Koresh14, Binyamin Gallery, etc.
