Renana Aldor is an artist working across moving image,installation, and expanded cinematic practices.
She is a lecturer at Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, where she graduated with honors from the Screen-Based Arts Department and later received her MFA.
Aldor's practice exists at the intersection of the documentary and the performative.
Through moving image and installation, she constructs choreographed encounters in which bodies, objects, and the cinematic gaze shape our perception of memory and space. Her work engages the cinematic apparatus as a way of thinking, exploring how gestures, proximity, duration, and spatial relations shape the relationship between the individual and the collective. Her works often unfold through restrained yet charged situations, where anticipation and uncertainty linger without resolution, producing an uncanny sense of suspended time.
Aldor is the recipient of the 2021 Miron Sima Prize for Visual Arts and the Young Artist Award from the Israeli Ministry of Culture. Aldor had solo shows and participated in group exhibitions, biennials, and international festivals, including the 5th Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism, the Israel Museum Jerusalem, the National Art Center Tokyo, Arsenal Gallery Poznań, Reaktor International Film Festival Vienna, the Jerusalem Film Festival, Eretz Israel Museum Tel Aviv, Jerusalem Artists' House, and Dvir Gallery Tel Aviv.
