Mika Benesh
Mika is an interdisciplinary Ashkenazi-Mizrahi artist working on Gadigal land in Sydney, Australia. Shaped by their experience of diaspora and the recovery of personal and communal history, Mika’s work unearths and reframes both family and cultural narratives, exploring loss of culture, intergenerational trauma, and the politics of place through drawing, jewelry, printmaking, photography, and textiles.
