Anat Keinan

Born in Jerusalem, Israel.
Current- MFA student at Yale School of Art.
BFA, Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem, Israel, 2017. Graduate Cum Laude.
Anat’s work is willing to create new, challenging schemes, for the spectator body in an exhibition space. She creates architectonical installations that oppose mechanical constructive forms and large-scale woodcut prints.
Anat Keinan’s practice revolves around the human body in space. She is curious how the architectural environment and physical objects shape our movement, stability, our choreography, and our emotions, challenging and rethinking how the human body reacts to and is activated by material and tactile space.
