Myriam Cohenca

Myriam Cohenca is an Israeli peace advocate, visual artist, and photographer based in Tel Aviv. Her work resides at the intersection of contemporary art and activism, focusing on human rights, exile, identity, and the environment, particularly within the complex landscape of Israel Palestine. She reflects on the beauty, injustices, grief, hope, and struggles of the region, aiming to imagine a radically different reality.

Recent projects include publications with Writehaus and Suboart, as well as exhibitions at WithDraw the War and Grosso Modo Tel Aviv, Art Number 23 Barcelona, and Millepiani Gallery Rome. In October 2024, she will participate in a residency with Frenkiel Ponti to prepare for her first solo show, which will open in Tel Aviv that same month.

Alongside her artistic practice, Cohenca works as a freelance visual communication specialist and photographer while completing her master’s degree in plastic arts at the Sorbonne. With a background in psychology, fine arts, and photography, she brings a multifaceted perspective to her work. She continues to explore new mediums and collaborations, focusing on creating work that bridges art and activism, and looks forward to future projects that further this mission.
