 Oren Eliav
(b.1975)
 

Oren Eliav was born in Israel in 1975 and lives and works in Tel Aviv. 
Exploring the link between image and imagination through painting, Eliav asks what is seeing, and what is knowing. Either by engaging with a 14th century Italian painting or a synthetically created image, Eliav looks into what happens to an image when one tries to paint it.
