Shosh Kormosh

Her work explored profound themes of bereavement, loss, the memory of The Holocaust, and the pervasive sense of loneliness in an increasingly alienated world.

[1] Raised in an environment shaped by the aftermath of the Holocaust, Kormosh grew up deeply aware of the emotional scars borne by survivors, including members of her own family.

[citation needed] Between 1981 and 1985, Kormosh studied at the Art Teachers' College 'Hamidrasha' in Ramat Hasharon, where she developed a unique approach to photography that blended traditional techniques with experimental processes.

[citation needed] The artist Nurit David described Kormosh's work as a "unique attempt by photography to discuss its absence, its innate problem, its variance from painting and sculpture, and its dependence on an object."

Her photography became a medium for processing grief and the intergenerational transmission of trauma, resonating deeply with Israeli artists and audiences grappling with the memory of the Holocaust.
