Dana Dekel

Dana Dekel’s love for photography began at a young age. “I remember photographing my friends and places I visited at age eleven,” she recalls. “In high school, the editor of the yearbook made me the photo editor.”

Born in Haifa and raised in New York, she studied photography at the New England School of Photography, The New School and 92YTribeca in New York and later the Dada School of Photography in Jerusalem.

She moved to Jerusalem in 2002 and then lived in various other cities in Israel, but eventually made her way back to the capital. “I love my life in the Holy City!” says Dana. She now lives in the Nachlaot neighborhood.

Her work has been exhibited at Makor, Here is New York, the Museum of Modern Art, Positive Focus, the Javits Center, Mercaz Hamagshimim and Art Jerusalem Fair.
