Noa is an Israeli artist, in recent years she has been living and creating in Los Angeles. She has exhibited around the world, including a solo exhibition at a museum in Rome.

On the table in Noa Ykutiali's studio is a large black paper, about two meters by one and a half meters. From this blackness she cuts, gently and diligently, ruins and crumbs of life. Most of Yekutiali's work deals with natural disasters, man-made disasters - what happens "when all your physical is taken away from you in an instant, how do you deal with the void, with the space created and preserve what was".
As in all her works, Noa wants to talk about memory more than destruction: "I examine how we remember things that have passed and events that changed reality: natural disasters, man-made disasters. My work is a kind of 'creating destruction', a reversal of the way destruction occurs, When in an instant an entire neighborhood turns into a million pieces. In the work of cutting paper by hand, I cut piece by piece and stay in the destruction for a long time."
