Sharon Blu

Sharon Blu is a Tel Aviv based visual artist whose practice spans large-scale painting and clay sculpture. Since 2020, she has developed an intuitive, material-driven approach that combines painting, drawing, and three-dimensional elements. Working primarily on large canvases, her process integrates a wide range of materials including acrylic, oil, charcoal, watercolor, markers, and recycled organic components. Through this layered methodology, her works explore the relationship between material, memory, and the human figure.

Her work centers on the human body as an unstable and evolving site, positioned between the personal and social sides. Figureness in her practice is often fragmented, reconstructed, or mechanically echoed, creating tension between vulnerability and structure, softness and control.

Blu has exhibited  in Israel and internationally. Her exhibition history includes solo and group exhibitions at Danielle Peled Art Gallery (Michigan), ADC Fine Art Gallery (Cincinnati), 187 Contemporary Art Gallery and Soma gallery, as well as participation in Red Dot Miami (2022). She has also shown work in curated group exhibitions at Ben-Ami Gallery and in thematic exhibitions addressing social and cultural questions. Since 2020, her work has been consistently presented in gallery contexts in Israel and the United States.

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Law (LL.B) and a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration (B.A) from the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya, as well as a Master of Laws (LL.M) from Fordham University, New York. Alongside her artistic practice, this academic background informs a rigorous conceptual framework and a sustained engagement with issues of structure, ethics, and human systems.
