Zoe Sever
Yellow Brick Road, Jerusalem,
Oil and acrylic on canvas, 100X120 cm.
Signed. Signed and titled on the reverse.
The landscape of Jerusalem seen in Zoe Sever’s paintings depicts a magical atmosphere of the past’s splendor and tradition, with a colorful utopian hope towards the future.
Sever’s artworks are made of a creative, original, and surreal jigsaw with thousands of bright and shinning details connected to Jerusalem’s unknown landscapes.
Zoe Sever is responsible for paintings of a figurative style with futuristic and conceptual characteristics. Her artistic language is linked to the Naïve dreamlike world, but a second glance to the depths of the details in her paintings, uncovers a fantastic and creative process, breaking the boundaries of imagination.
Sever was born in Lviv - Ukraine and attended Bezalel Academy. With designs skills, she creates precise and realistic paintings with unique horizons. Zoe Sever’s artworks can be found in important museums and private collections in Israel and around the world.
The paintings of Jerusalem continue her Jaffa street project, beginning with the Crusader Route and ending with Jaffa Gate - a project which she explored and painted.
Zoe Sever’s Jerusalem is a magical and mysterious city, a holly and joyful city. Her paintings draw from a positive and assertive energy which she grants to the viewers.
Her Jerusalem paintings series continue the tradition of the masters’ paintings recording this unique city, and remind Reuven Rubin’s paintings with mythical landscapes, Ardon’s mystic Jerusalem and Naftali Bezem’s pilgrimage Jerusalem.
