Lili Almog height - How tall is Lili Almog?

Lili Almog has built a celebrated photography career, focusing her lens primarily on women and, more recently, on the traces of human presence in America’s post-industrial landscapes. Raised in an Israeli matriarchal home, she emigrated to the United States in the mid-1980s as a photojournalist, working on fashion shoots and portraiture, and documenting New York’s eccentric nightlife in candid black-and-white images. She gradually transitioned into photographing only women, presenting their "psyche and their body" in their intimate space and revealing their "spiritual state of mind and cultural identity" that has been affected by conflict and western culture.

After graduating from the School of Visual Arts in the 1990s, she continued to develop her own vision, which have taken her into women’s private spaces (Bed Sequence), cloistered nuns in remote Carmelite monasteries (Perfect Intimacy ), and minority women in rural China (The Other Half of the Sky ), where she sensitively captured women in moments of solitude and introspection. “My intention…is to enter an extremely private space without disrupting the delicate essence of communication between subject, their experience, and the viewer,” Almog has said.

Lili Almog (Hebrew: לילי אלמוג, b. 1961, Tel Aviv) lives and works in New York City, is a photographer and mixed media artist, who is renowned for her intimate spiritual portraits of women cultural identities around the world. Almog has worked primarily in the environmental portraiture genre, among her most notable work is photographing cloistered nuns in Israel, Palestine, and the United States and working in Muslim women mosques and with other minority women in rural China.
