Meital Polachek, born in 1978, lives and works in Moshav Sitria, Israel.
Polachek studied painting independently through various master classes and artists’ workshops (2017–present).
In recent years, she has been mentored by artists Tsibi Geva and Shai Yehezkelli.
She works in an expressive abstract style, using acrylics and mixed media on canvas and paper.
She also creates works on porcelain and clay.
Polachek’s work explores the relationship between the conscious and the intuitive, between defined forms and moments of freedom.
Her paintings invite the viewer to move from the precise to the abstract, from containment to release, and from boundaries to their dissolution.
Polachek has exhibited her work in group exhibitions and solo exhibition.
Her work is held in the Gordon Gallery collection.
