  • Gabi Ben Avraham - Israel

    I am an Israeli photographer (63), I live in Tel Aviv, Israel and work as an IT manager in a software company.

    The Street is not a Studio - at a single click, I try to fill the insignificance around me with significance and create a private and intimate hallucination in order to share it with the viewer.

    I shot independently for the last few years and teach at Street Photography workshops.

    I have participated in many exhibitions, personal, groups and Street photography festivals. I was a judge in a number of street photography competitions and won the first prize in the Lensculture street photography singles competition for 2020.
