Tel-Aviv, Israel
The traditional easel is increasingly being bypassed in modern creative spaces. In studios across Tel Aviv, large-format canvases are laid directly onto tiled floors, transforming the entire room into an active workspace. This physical approach to painting invites a more dynamic flow of movement, allowing materials to pool and spread naturally.
The video shows a close-up overhead shot of a young person with dark hair kneeling on a tiled floor, painting on a large canvas. The canvas is propped up at an angle and has a blue and gold abstract design. The person is using a paintbrush to apply more paint to the canvas. To the left of the canvas, there are several art supplies, including a clear plastic cup with red liquid, a small black container, and a tube of paint. Another canvas with blue and black abstract markings is also visible on the floor to the left. The person is wearing a dark-colored tank top and appears to be focused on their artwork. The lighting is soft, suggesting it might be an indoor setting.
The process begins with raw canvases spread flat. Acrylics, inks, and water are poured directly onto the surfaces, creating organic gradients of deep blues, golds, and muted grays. Brushes are used not just for precise lines, but to guide the heavy flow of liquid across the canvas, resulting in unpredictable, textured layers.
The image shows a young woman with curly brown hair, wearing a black halter top, holding two paintbrushes. She is looking at the camera with a neutral expression. Her left shoulder and part of her arm are visible. In the background, to the left, another person is seen from the back, hunched over. Behind them is a dark wooden door and a white cabinet. To the right of the main subject, a green couch is visible, and to the far right, a wall covered with photographs. The scene appears to be indoors, possibly an apartment or studio. The presence of paintbrushes suggests an artistic setting. There is no information to determine the specific location in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Working on the floor changes the physical relationship to the art. Instead of standing before a vertical frame, creators bend, kneel, and move around the perimeter, viewing the work from every possible angle. It is a highly tactile method that blurs the line between the workspace and the piece itself.

The woman is kneeling on the floor, painting on two canvases. To her left is a white cabinet with a large brown bag hanging from it. Various paint tubes and brushes are scattered around the canvases. A floor lamp with a wooden tripod stand is positioned behind the canvases. To the right of the lamp, a green sofa is visible, with a blue trash can beside it. Another person with dark hair is also visible kneeling and painting on a canvas. The room appears to be a living space, possibly an artist's studio.
A light-skinned couple poses for a selfie in an outdoor dining area in Tel Aviv, Israel. The woman, on the left, wears a blue floral print dress and black sunglasses. The man, on the right, has short brown hair, a beard, and wears glasses and a white t-shirt with green text that reads "TIME IS MONEY IN ST. BARTH". He has a beige strap from a bag across his chest. Behind them, a brick wall is visible with various stickers and graffiti. To their left, an awning with lightbulbs is overhead, and in the background, there are glimpses of buildings and street signs. One sign visible in the background shows the number "40" and other Hebrew text.
Art supplies clutter the edges of these active zones—tubes of heavy-body acrylics, mixing cups, and discarded paper towels. The surrounding environment, often a relaxed residential loft or a dedicated studio space, becomes part of the process. The casual setting fosters experimentation away from the pressures of a formal gallery.
In an apartment in Tel Aviv, Israel, a woman with curly brown hair kneels on a tiled floor in front of a white dresser.

Scattered around her on the floor are various art supplies, including tubes of acrylic paint in shades of blue, white, and red, small bottles of ink, brushes, and a palette knife. A large canvas rests on the floor in front of her, covered in abstract splatters of blue, white, and orange paint. The scene suggests a creative moment, possibly during an art session.
