Carmel Dor (they/them) is a Minneapolis-based artist and educator. Their research-based practice uses painting, drawing, zine-making, and sculpture to investigate felt time in moments of transition. Dor's recent work is particularly interested in how queer theories of mutable identity formation map onto Jewish Diaspora and Israeli Nationality as sites of historical and necessarily forthcoming transition. Their recent artist books include Economy of the Droplet (2022) and Kur Hituch (2023). They are a 2026–27 Artist in Residence at the Twin Cities Pride Cultural Center. Their work is featured on the White Columns Registry, and they were a 2023 Ortega y Gasset Projects Artist to Watch. They are currently an Adjunct Professor at Hamline University and have previously taught at MCAD, Augsburg University, Tyler School of Art, and Moore College of Art and Design. Dor has degrees in Art and Art History from the University of California, Davis, and an MFA from the Tyler School of Art and Architecture at Temple University.
