Arts & Craft Makers
Among the old shacks of Kibbutz Ga'aton, is a unique creative space where art meets soul. Here, every creation is born from an inner fire, and a deep connection to material and spirit. Studio Lil was established in 2006 and wandered between different countries and communities until 4 years ago it found its home in Kibbutz Ga'aton. The studio is a place where hands are always working and fingers like threads emerging from the heart, laboring in the quiet act of creation and the birth of ideas and thoughts in material. Studio Lil offers three main areas of creation: Professional Goldsmith - pure 14k and 925 silver jewelry, with unique influences with natural stones and specializing in luxurious piercing jewelry. Handmade Ceramics - sculptural and functional works from black, white and terracotta clay, with an emphasis on rich textures and exposed clay. Combination of natural materials: driftwood, stones, gold leaf, and unique elements. Paintings and Calligraphy - works in ink and natural materials such as henna, earth colors, and charcoal.
