Artist
Nir Segal
Nir Segal is an Israeli artist based in Tel Aviv. Segal has been exploring his fascination in different narrative methods of ready-made materials such as sticker pages, wrapping paper. Shifting the focus towards the design of his fabrics, Segal suggests a new experience of textile via images and narrative. In his sticker pages and wrapping paper works, he calls attention at their state of potential and attempts to mythologize it.
