About

I am Ora Nissim, an international Jewish artist and award-winning creator, working from a deep connection to tradition, spirit and the joy of Jewish life.
Ora Nissim Portrait
I was born and raised in the Mea Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem. Jerusalem lives within me and is the source of my artistic vision, the root and constant inspiration behind my work. A city of profound spirituality and diverse cultures living side by side, a complexity reflected in my paintings of Jerusalem, daily life, Jewish tradition and heritage.

My artistic line is rooted in Modern Jewish Art, a fusion of ancient tradition and contemporary visual language. My works are born from a deep intuitive process. The modern techniques unique to my style were developed through a personal journey of exploration and discovery, allowing me to bring my full inner voice onto the canvas. Rich layers of color, tactile textures and harmonious movement merge into a personal and immersive experience.
I believe that when one observes a work again and again, the unseen begins to reveal itself and in that moment an inner illumination is born.

Every artwork that enters a home is carefully selected, created and presented at the highest level, out of respect for art, for people and for their personal story.

My works are featured in numerous private collections in Israel and around the world and hang in the homes of collectors and art lovers who seek presence and meaning.

My mission is to bring color, light and joy into homes across the world and to share the spirit and atmosphere of Jerusalem and the Land of Israel everywhere. It moves me each time anew to see how a work comes to life in my clients' homes and continues to illuminate them day after day.

Self Portrait

And it was not only my hands that created
and my fingers that held the brush
but
all my body and my soul
and all my might
the threads of my spirit
the colors of my thoughts
the essence of my blood
I have offered you myself
