Tom Tomer Goldberg
Tom Tomer Goldberg (b. 1979) is an Israeli multidisciplinary artist and a graduate of the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design. Working across painting, mixed media, video, and installation, he creates densely layered works in which portraiture, spiritual symbolism, found imagery, and tactile materials converge.
Goldberg’s practice is distinguished by an associative, stream-of-consciousness approach. Figures and objects appear suspended between meditative stillness and psychological tension, while fragmented surfaces and unexpected combinations of materials transform familiar scenes into ambiguous inner landscapes. Early works such as Healing Circle and Omri already demonstrate his interest in ritual, the body, and the complex relationship between individual experience and collective identity.
Goldberg participated in Life in an Emptied House at the ST-ART Residence in Jaffa in 2009 and START 2 in 2010. That same year, he presented the solo exhibition Sunburns at Julie M. Gallery, Tel Aviv. His work was later included in exhibitions at RawArt Gallery and Zemack Contemporary Art.
