Melanit is a graduate of Wizo School, Fashion Studies, and the University of Haifa in Humanities and Arts.

Understanding that light is a form of creation opens the door to a world filled with enchantment and profound emotions.

Melanit's choice to become a photographer originated from a deep curiosity about light and a profound interest in its creative potential. Light has consistently captivated her, and she is perpetually exploring its role in the realm of artistry.

For several years, Melanit immersed herself in the study of light within the domain of advertising.

She was driven by the desire to comprehend its significance in the world of photography, especially in the context of product photography.

Melanit delved into the power of light to evoke tension, creating discord between the subjects
in photographs and the emotions evoked in viewers.

Through meticulous attention to detail and precision in lighting, she achieved the transformation of
products into artificial, vibrant, and emotionally engaging entities.

Recently, Melanit experienced a transformative journey, akin to "returning home."
Inanimate objects have transformed, into human subjects,
with light gently caressing their forms and unveiling stories, particularly
those stories the cannot perceive or acknowledge.

This journey of discovery and revelation generates a profound tension, oscillating
,between fear and excitement, pain and joy, happiness and sorrow
and brightness and darkness. The narrative comes to life.
Photography, without uttering a single word, delves deep
into the souls of those captured, accentuating
the chasm between outward appearances and inner realities.

Aside of her artistic practice, Melanit is an award winning commercial photographer.

Her commercial projects were shown in European shops, venues and shopping magazines.
