I am Yuval Ben Yacob, a resident of New Jersey originally from Israel.

 

After witnessing the events of October 7th and the subsequent war, I was deeply moved by the experiences of my sister, Ruti, which aside from being an artist, she is also a professional masseuse and art teacher.

 

In our daily conversations, Ruti shared her initial shock and fear, followed by concerns about losing her income. Despite these challenges, she found solace and purpose by volunteering at a hotel-turned-shelter for the displaced.

 

Inspired by my sister's efforts, I had the idea to bring together Israeli artists on a single platform where they can showcase their work to a global audience. Each artist has their own page, sharing personal stories and featuring samples of their creations.

 

If you're interested in purchasing their artwork, you can easily do so on Etsy, with the artists ensuring its safe delivery.

Go to artist page, then click on the Etsy link to go choose an artwork to purchase.

 

During these uncertain and challenging times, we all need support and solidarity. This website serves as a way for me to offer my support to these artists and to foster a sense of global community.
