Empty Chair is an ongoing photographic project created while travelling across Israel and photographing empty chairs found in unexpected places. The project began from a simple observation: a chair left in a field, by a road, near the sea, or in another unlikely location immediately creates a quiet human presence, even when no person is visible.
I am interested in the questions these objects open: who sat there, why was the chair left behind, what happened before and after the image was taken? The empty chair becomes a trace of a body, a temporary mark in the landscape, and a small invitation to imagine an unseen story. Through this project, I explore absence, memory, place, and the emotional tension between ordinary objects and the environments they unexpectedly inhabit.
