About The Artist
Archie Granot created his first papercut in 1979 and has been creating paper art ever since. Many of his multilayered paper cuts carry a reminder of the Holy City, a source of his inspiration. Granot often uses texts that relate to Jerusalem, Judaica, Judaism, Israel, and Jewish weddings (Ketubahs).
To find out more about commissioning a ketubah or other works contact the artist today.
