Artist Bio
Malak Manzour is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in the village of Isfiya, Israel. Manzour obtained her BFA from the Mishkan of Arts at the Haifa University (2022), graduating with honors.
In her visual art practice, Manzour works in installation, sculpture, oil painting on canvas, graphite, and occasionally collage. Alongside her visual practice, she also writes poetry and creates Blackout Poetry, often as an extension of her thematic explorations in the visual arts, which span self and collective research, nature, dreams, mythology, reincarnation, archetypes, ancestral trauma, and lineage.
