Zohar
Baranovitch
Zohar Baranovitch graduated with honors from the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in screen-based arts with a focus on documentary video and new media. Her works have been presented both nationally and internationally. She also served as assistant director to Oscar-nominated filmmaker Uri Barbash on a feature-length documentary.
As a Fulbright Fellow, Zohar will pursue a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in design and technology at Parsons School of Design in New York, where she will explore creative technologies as both material and medium for new modes of expression. She aims to create works that transcend traditional boundaries of production and exhibition, expanding possibilities for making and engaging with work by, about, and alongside individuals from diverse backgrounds and communities.
Alongside her artistic practice, Zohar is deeply engaged in community organizing. Since 2020, she has been volunteering as a project manager with the Culture of Solidarity initiative in Tel Aviv, supporting marginalized communities across the region. During the ongoing war, she coordinated the Jewish-Arab Emergency Relief Center in the Bedouin city of Rahat and in unrecognized villages in the Negev.
