The juror will be Israel, who received her Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. Her work encompasses various interests, including sculpture, installation, video and mark-making.

She has exhibited her work at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta; the Zuckerman Museum of Art in Kennesaw, Ga.; The Vargas Museum of Art in the Philippines; the Museum of Contemporary Art in Honolulu; I-Space in Chicago, and the Krannert Art Museum in Champaign, Ill. Israel has received the Daedalus Art Grant (New York City), the Creative and Performance Art Fellowship at the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana, Ill., and the Artist Fellowship at Cornell University, N.Y., and the Banff Center scholarship, Canada. She has also curated numerous solo and group exhibitions.

This year, Israel’s work will be featured in a group exhibition, Highlighting Contemporary Art in Georgia: Cut & Paste, Works of Paper, which will travel to six venues including the Museum of Papermaking in Atlanta, the Lyndon Art Center in Athens, and the Telfair Museum in Savannah.  She recently completed a five-week residency program at the Banff Creativity and Innovation Center for the Arts in Canada. Last November, she was awarded the 2019 Blue Heron Nature Preserve Artist in Residence in Atlanta.

Israel has collaborated with renowned musician Paul Vallaincourt for the Dias de los Muertos composed by Robert Xavier Rodriguez, for which she directed the video The Shadow to accompany the concert for the Schwob School of Music Percussion Ensemble that was featured at Legacy Hall in Columbus, Ga., and Spivey Hall in Atlanta.  She also has collaborated with photographer Sarah Hobbs on A Handful of Dust, a project for Whitespec in Atlanta.
