Laura Fridman is a French artist whose unconventional path—from studying economics at Yale University to dancing with the Israel Ballet—profoundly shaped her artistic vision. Drawing from her experience as a professional ballet dancer, she reimagines the female figure, blending elegance with distortion to create a uniquely expressive style.
​
Her paintings feature monochromatic, distorted bodies, with only the hands and faces rendered in realistic detail. The women’s enlarged hands symbolize strength and power, evoking a subtle unease. Yet, despite their disproportionate size, they remain delicate, creating a dialogue between force and grace.
​
Through her art, Fridman explores beauty and strength, courage and vulnerability, and the ever-evolving nature of identity.
