About The Artist

SKETCHLIGH Ray Vagner . Keren Eicher . Aria Geler . Roy Shoval Sketchlight was established in 2014 by two women artists Ray Vagner & Keren Eicher In time, Arie Geler and Roy Shoval joined and became an integral part of creation, This type of photography is very complex and requires the Collaboration of several people at the same time to create the image Light painting is an art form, a combination of painting and photography, darkness is our canvas and light is the brush All of our artworks are pictures Light painting created in real time captured to the camera in one single photographic frame. Without Photoshop intervention The artworks are done in a completely dark studio or at night in places where there is no artificial "light pollution" We use different and special lighting tools Some of the tools we use we built ourselves Light painting is an art form a technique consists of creating Images by capchering the movement of light. in all our creation we do the lightning by hand, We see the movement constantly changing We are exploring all kinds of technique some of our work highlights the abstract nature of light, we are inspired by the beauty of light in all it’s various forms. We are constantly searching for new color textures and tools. It is a technique that creates the impossible, records the paths of light in to the picture, reveals something hidden in the real world. Light painting is a clear testimony to the beauty of the phenomenon of light. The creative potential of light brings new sensations, new colors, new meaning to our lives. Despite the frequent use of concepts such as modern art, and the shadow of the technological and digital changes in photography, the emphasis in our artworks is precisely on analog, manual, low-tech aesthetics. Through the use of technique from the beginning of photography to create Modern art, I think that this way you can reinvent the medium of photography. My intention is to raise awareness of the existence of this type of artwork "light painting" and its inherent charm Our artworks deals with the subject of divine endless and surrounding light , the light that the human eye can not see, the artworks reveal something hidden from the real world Together, we offer nonlinear, critical and contextual ways of tracking hidden light and reveal spiritual circles and routes that can be challenged, directed, Or display them in a new light to create unexpected beauty Quote that gave us a lot of inspiration by A.D. Gordon "The light will not defeat the darkness as long as we dont stand on the simple truth that instead of fighting the dark we must increase the light CONTACT Ray Vagner Address: Israel - Petah tikva E-mail: sketch.rg@gmail.com 050-6943190 Phone Number: CV Ray Vagner & Keren Eicher are an official representative of Israel Since 2015 in the "light painting world alliance", an international nonprofit organization that brings together all the best light painters in the field from all over the world.
