BASMAT

Basmat Levin, an Israeli artist based in NYC, has spent the last 15 years between her studios in Shanghai M50 Art District and Manhattan.

Basmat’s vivid paintings capture the world’s energy through expressions of color and texture. Her portraits and patterns reflect the faces and subtleties she has encountered across the globe. Her paintings are rich with color, bold strokes, and passion, to evoke the vibrant energy of the world she inhabits.

Her paintings and installations have been widely exhibited internationally in galleries, museums, and public spaces, as well as being featured in major motion pictures such as “The Upside,” “Dinner Rush,” and “Suburban Girl,” among others.
