Shira Barzilay is a successful artist based in Tel Aviv and the creator of the brand Koketit.

She grew up travelling the world with her parents and developed a love for fashion and painting from a early age on. She spent her childhood drawing, creating and designing before graduating in fashion design from the Shenkar Fashion Institute in Tel Aviv. But despite her love for fashion, it's in painting and drawing that she found real joy and meaning.

She spent years refining her style, shedding excess line and colors, until reaching the clear essence of her art.

The result is a minimalist yet very powerful line that she uses to fill the world and the clouds with airy figures and delicate faces, shedding light on the invisible poetry of this world.

Her work is eclectic and seem to always adapt to its surroundings. From white canvas to landscape pictures and fashion garments, her figures always seem to find the exact place to shine, the exact balance to complement the canvas and add to its beauty.

“My creativity often comes from sensing some kind of absence. The lack of something makes you realise what you want, what you need, and from that come the ideas.” — Shira Barzilay⁠

Her work is -understandably- very popular on social media and she can boast having had collaboration with many brands such as H&M, Amazon and Chanel. She is also one of the most prolific artist I ever covered on my channel and I can highly recommend a dive into her website and shop. Prepare yourself to be charmed !
