Asia Katz was born in Bulgaria in 1964. She studied photography in "Ulius Fuchic", the only school of photographic arts in Bulgaria, and graduated in 1985. Asia continued her studies, specializing in color photography in Germany. In 199l she immigrated to Israel and lives in Safed - in the Galilee.
Asia was born and grew up in Bulgaria. She always knew, however, that she would live in another country. Upon her arrival in Israel, already in Ben Gurion Airport, she made up her mind to go where artists are, even though she had never drawn before. That is why she is in Safed and why she remains and established as an Israeli artist there.
Asia graduated from the Ulius Fuchic Art School in Sofia, where she studied artistic photography. Despite her young age, her first fame came to here there. Taking part in many exhibitions ;and shows, she became widely known .
Her art is new, unusual, interesting. People have begun to talk about it, Asia explores new drawing techniques and cleverly mixes different media: water color, gouache, pen, ink, pencil, acrylic and etching. An ordinary piece of bark becomes a fantastic image if you look at it from a different point of view. "Still Life in Space" with more than thirty different water colors, "Glue Planet", "3D Projection of Woman", "The Chaos of the Creation of the world", "People's Attraction to the Light" are good examples of the world of Asia's fanatics and feelings, of her break from the textbooks she studied in art scholl.
