I’m Ido Barzilai.
Born in 1997, A stage designer based in TLV. SMKB graduat, My artistic work moves between theatre, dance, and visual art, and often begins from a desire to challenge fixed forms. I learn best through doing, through direct physical engagement with materials, objects, and space. Sometimes this means building a three-meter giraffe puppet by hand, sometimes it means joining a physical workshop to explore gravity and balance as elements of stage language. For me, creation begins where curiosity meets action where thinking happens through experience.
