Shira Gold

“My art is alert to the discomfort we all face in our daily lives. I want to turn pain and angst on its side to discover the beauty that accompanies our struggles.”

  Photography has always been the antidote for Shira Gold’s busy mind - a visual expression that defies verbal articulation. Her sizeable bodies of work are steeped in personal narratives and observations, exploring subjects of grief, identity, change and wonder.

  Shira utilizes still life and landscape as metaphors for themes common to us all and often left unspoken. Stillness, negative space and minimalism are consistent characters that have become hallmarks in her work, providing visual respite and a means to focus on intention and simplicity.
