Hi! I'm Aviv, an Illustrator, Graphic Designer and Animator. In 2021 I graduated with honors from the Visual Communication Department at Bezalel Academy of Arts & Design. I am passionate about bringing untold stories to life through a multitude of mediums. My work is characterized by its use of bright color, collage techniques, surrealist atmospheres, and maximalism. Movement, whether through animation, drawing, or design, plays a central role in my practice.
