“Drawing in the Air” ― Koby Sibony Studio ― Design & Art with Iron Wires, Kibbutz Lohamei HaGeta’ot
The exhibition will be open for visits from 10 am – 4 pm.
Gallery Talk “Drawing in the Air” & Demonstration Will Take Place at: 10 am & 1 pm
In Koby Sibony’s studio in Kibbutz Lohamei HaGeta’ot, thin iron wires become lines in space ― sculptures, reliefs, and images that look like a 3D drawing in the air.
Sibony, a graduate of the Industrial Design Department at Bezalel, creates a personal and imaginative visual world, in which human figures, animals, musical instruments and structures float in space like creatures from local mythology.
His works are built from the precise and delicate action of bending, tying, and connecting thin metal wires, alongside the combination of found objects and materials collected over the years.
The delicate materiality creates a world that moves between sculpture and drawing, between line and shadow, between playfulness and fragility ― a poetic world of images born from local life and the human landscape of the Western Galilee.
