OMAN
The project is designed to encourage creativity and support the local community.
OMAN means artist in Hebrew.
I decided to create the OMAN project to encourage the young generation to be brave with their decisions about their lives and to try things that they desire. Besides, these challenging times of COVID-19 put the local community of artists in a difficult situation. I want to raise awareness of local craftsmanship.
My name is Alexander Tilkin. I’m 35, living in Tel-Aviv. I Work for a cybersecurity startup as an R&D manager. In addition, I’m a computer science college professor. I hold an M.Sc. in computer science and an M.B.A. from Tel Aviv University. My previous photography project was Ka’akooa. It documented the Israeli tattoo culture. I presented the project in the Eretz Israel Museum in Tel Aviv.
