Ohad Fishof is an interdisciplinary artist and performer. His work spans and intersects sound, performance, dance, video, and text. His creations are predominantly time-based, often exhibiting a deep-rooted inclination towards the performative—a predisposition that places great significance on art as a shared experience. This emphasis is embedded in the work itself, showing a formal interest in narrative and the structure of stories as a mold for human experience.
In his performance, video and installation work, Fishof regularly integrates sound, human movement, voice, text, images and digital media. He typically works either solo or collaboratively with other dancers, musicians, and performers. His works have been showcased in museums and art spaces such as the Tel Aviv Museum, the Israel Museum, Herzliya Museum, Petach Tikva Museum, Ashdod Museum, CCA Tel Aviv-Yafo, n.b.k. Berlin, P-House Gallery (Tokyo), and The Trade Apartment (London). He received commissions from institutions and organizations including Artangel (UK), the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra, the 21st Century Ensemble (Israel), Livable Futures (USA), Bærum Kulturhus (Norway), Print Screen Festival (Israel), as well as from dance companies such as Bern Ballet, Repertory Dance Theatre (USA), Tanz Kassel (Germany), Frontier Danceland (Singapore), the Batsheva Ensemble, and Batsheva Dance Company. His work has been presented by festivals such as Sound Dance (Berlin), Tectonics (Glasgow), and BMotion (Italy). His music has been released by record labels such as Stellage (Moscow), Entr’acte (Antwerp), Black Truffle (Germany), and Raash (Israel).
