Elisheva Revah
Born in 1991, lives and works in Tel Aviv.
Born and raised in the Judah Mountains of Israel, Elisheva grew up
surrounded by nature, art, and spirituality. Her parents, both artists,
chose an unusual lifestyle going back to a slower way of living, practicing
art and spiritual Judaism.
Her work is influenced by ancient art, using symbols and myths from
different cultures to explore the processes of womanhood and the
perceptions of femininity.
Elisheva’s performative work navigates into a lost collective memory
of ritual, worship, and transcendental practices, drawn from ancient
cultures such as the Berber Moroccan trans or the Sufi dervish whirling.
Trained as a professional dancer, her creative research and artistic
process strive to be an embodiment of the body, channeling its power,
and remodeling its perception.
