Born in Paris in 1997, UBAB grew up in a home filled with chaos and creativity. By the age of 13, art became his language of freedom—a way to process the world and express what words could not. He painted anything he could get his hands on: canvases, furniture, clothing, and found objects. At 15, he exhibited his first works in Paris, and in the years that followed, he opened several art studios, building a life centered around creation.

But his story took a powerful turn at age 22, after the passing of his father and the discovery of his Jewish roots. UBAB made aliyah and enlisted in the IDF as a combat soldier. “The art didn’t stop,” he shares. “It was the thread I held onto—the one thing that kept me grounded through all the change.”
UBAB’s work is deeply personal and raw, shaped by identity, memory, and transformation. His style defies categories, always alive, always evolving. His creations travel the world, carrying pieces of his story—his questions, his losses, his rebirth.

After eight months of reserve duty during the war, UBAB was forced to shut down his business. “Everything stopped suddenly. But I never stopped creating. It was my way of holding on, of keeping a ray of hope in the middle of the chaos.” After his service, he packed a bag and began traveling the world—a journey that reignited his spirit and gave rise to a new chapter in his artistic life. “The war changed me. It changed how I see, feel, and create. It reshaped my identity. Today, each piece I make carries a part of that journey.”

UBAB continues to draw inspiration from travel, Jewish tradition, and the space between worlds. Through his work, he bridges past and future, stillness and motion, Paris and Tel Aviv—always searching for meaning in the complex world he inhabits.
