Manofim Festival invites you to step into artists’ working space: the studio. The artist’s studio is where inspiration becomes an idea, and like in a magic spell, thoughts come to life and take a tangible form. In contrast with display venues, in the studio, visitors do not encounter the exhibition or finished product, but get to see the raw materials, textures, sources of inspirations, and experimentations that were removed in the editing process.

​The visit to the studios will revolve around the subject of “Rituals.” During the visit, the artists will take you on a journey in which you will get to know and take part in the different rituals carried out in the studio: from small actions, like cleaning and tidying the space, to preparation work, like mixing paint and materials, to the adoption of meticulous and labor intensive artistic techniques.

This is a unique opportunity to peek behind the curtain, get to know the hidden layers of the artwork, and even take part in the actual artistic action.
