Carmel Dor (they/them) is a Minneapolis-based artist and educator. Their research-based practice uses painting, drawing, zine-making, and sculpture to investigate felt time in moments of transition. Dor's recent work is particularly interested in how queer theories of mutable identity formation map onto Jewish Diaspora and Israeli Nationality as sites of historical and necessarily forthcoming transition. Their work is featured on the White Columns Registry and they were a 2023 Ortega y Gasset Projects Artist to Watch. They received grants from the Tyler School of Art to complete their artist books Economy of the Droplet (2022) and Kur Hituch (2023) and completed the Duckworth Scholar’s Studio Makerspace Residency in 2024. Dor has degrees in Art and Art History from the University of California, Davis and an MFA from the Tyler School of Art and Architecture at Temple University.
