Yael Salomon’s art embodies a unique fusion of sculpture and painting, creating abstract, highly textural scenes that evoke a sense of wandering through unknown territories. Her work invites viewers on a journey through the collective mind and consciousness, raising questions rather than offering conclusions—a gentle invitation to wonder and reflect.
Drawing inspiration from imagined landscapes, Salomon masterfully layers delicate washes of colored water over intricate textures. This technique challenges both the artist and the audience to explore and interpret what lies beneath the surface of perception, blurring the lines between reality and imagination.
Her artworks serve as a call to pause and immerse oneself fully in the moment of observation—embracing a fleeting moment of vulnerability where textures, colors, rhythms, and abstraction awaken emotions and sensitivities.
Salomon’s creative process brings light to the transformative power of art, offering it as a shared gift that ignites inner and external positive energies, fostering connection and inspiration.
