Paula Rykin
Lives in Gilon and designs functional and decorative pieces for the home from upcycled materials.
For many years Paula worked in jewelry design, though simultaneously her interest in the area of sustainability and environment grew.
She began to design light fittings from upcycled tin cans, collages from bottle tops, broken toys and neglected items that under her hands were given a new life.
ART192 - Gallery for Galilean Fraftswomen
ART192 – gallery for Galilean craftswomen – is a joint initiative of 10 female artists from the Galilee and Golan who create different types of art in ceramics, glass, recycled materials and more. The gallery is located in one of the Old Akko alleys, inside a conserved building from the Ottoman empire times. Whenever you visit, you can meet one of the artists in person, hear her personal story, creative process and learn about art in the Galilee. Each visit is unique!
