Eden Auerbach Ofrat (born 1979) is an Israeli video-art and video installation artist. In her work, Auerbach Ofrat deals with cultural archetypes, canonical or imaginary symbols, contradictory and complementary existential poles, relying on literary and mythical sources. Her work is done either through playing with given mythological elements and symbols or by creating “private” myths. Eden has won an Sharett scholarship from the America-Israel Foundation[1] and the “Young Artist Award” by the Israeli Ministry of Culture, Education, and Sports.[2]
