Israeli-born Noma Bar studied graphic design and typography at the Jerusalem Academy of Art& Design before moving to London in 2001.

Bar loves to tell visual stories. With a deft touch he can imbue simple graphic forms with political and social commentary, or manipulate everyday icons to create witty, double- take images that make you look once, twice, three times.  With his bold use of colours, shapes and pared down iconography, Bar captures the spirit of a person or the heart of an issue with arresting clarity and humour and his instantly recognizable style has established him as one of the world’s most in-demand illustrators.

In September 2011 his London Design Festival exhibition “Cut It Out”, at Outline Editions pop up gallery in Soho, was selected as one of the highlights of the festival, travelled to the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and SCIN gallery.  The project has just been nominated an award in the graphics category for the Design Museum, Designs Of the Year 2012.  Cut It Out will be exhibited alongside other nominations at the Design Museum from 8th February-15th July 2012.   

All one off and open edition cut outs by Noma Bar are available to buy exclusively from Outline Editions.
