Carmela Ben Shitrit​

​An Israeli Artist multidisciplinary, practice in Wood Carving and Lino Prints, intaglio, Oil painting and Japanese ink.

My artistic works are influenced both from my inner feeling as well as Nature, of all its shapes, subjects, colors and shades, and the way nature changes every day, every season in every way.

I’ve studies in the Hebrew University Geography and English because I’ve always was interested in foreign and different cultures.

During the years I’ve learned and practiced in various technics and Art disciplines.

I’ve studied with Marek Yanai and Sasha Okun R.I.P.

On 2007 I followed my husband post as Israeli Ambassador to Japan.

While in Japan Tokyo along 6 years, I found the deep connection between my Artistic skills, as I’ve learned 

Calligraphy, Japanese ink, Wood carving, Wood block prints, Carving Stamps, and ceramic.

The special media which I met in Japan inspired me deeply and it shows in my works, both in Japan and in Israel.

My  dialogue synthesized with the Japanese Art continues ever since.
