FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Inbal Ben Yaakov is an independent art curator and creative director with extensive experience developing art collections, exhibitions and creative projects across hospitality, residential and cultural environments.
Her multidisciplinary practice brings together contemporary art, visual culture, design and craft, informed by a sharp visual eye, broad cultural knowledge and a sensitivity to context. She has led curatorial programmes and large-scale art projects for international hospitality, working across artistic strategy, artist research, collection development, and creative direction.
Growing up as the daughter of a furniture maker, Inbal developed an early sensitivity to materials, craftsmanship and the relationship between objects and space. Her background in visual arts further shaped her understanding of composition, rhythm and atmosphere.
She brings these influences together through a practice defined by unique visual storytelling, discernment and rigorous attention to detail, balancing conceptual thinking with a deep respect for quality, craftsmanship and execution.
