Laura Fridman

Laura Fridman is French, studied economics at Yale, danced with the Israel Ballet, and then started painting. Her figurative work exaggerates hands and necks while keeping faces photographic — a tension that feels physical, like the body is working through something. She has shown in Tel Aviv, Paris, and Barcelona.

Laura Fridman is a French artist and dancer based in Tel Aviv, Israel. Her art is primarily centered around the female figure and seeks to explore ephemerality, beauty, the body and our ongoing journey of self discovery. Curved lines and elongated necks persistently punctuate her canvases, reflecting her experience in the world of dance and the pervasive scrutiny imposed on the female body. INSTAGRAM
