About this Artist

Yokhai Givon

"My works are the result of a fundamental belief in being part of long tradition, which continues with the everlasting search for the right visual representation of our ever-changing present reality "

Yokhai Givon's chairs and wall pieces are born out of an interest in technology and its influence on the way we see, feel, and comprehend the new reality imposed on us. He chose to document the primary form of a circle and explore its transformation as it goes through a particular media. The challenge with his furniture was to make a piece of seating where he could meditate in front of the wall pieces he was making at the time.

Givon's seating forms are made out of handmade hardwood plywood glued over a particular diameter form, then cut to sizes and assembled together. The wall pieces are sequential photos along a marked circle on the floor, then spliced and glued on a pre-formed plywood form.

The artist grew up with mother-painter at home. He has worked in sculpture, mainly in clay plaster cement and paper, from the age of nine, and took and some junior art classes at a local museum. Givon holds a B.F.A. in sculpture from the Boston Museum School, and an M.F.A. from the Pratt Institute. His work comes from wood and photos images, and from his personal doodle books.
