HI!
I’m Tim Oder, an abstract artist and designer based in Tel Aviv.
My practice combines paper-based techniques, asemic writing, and geometric systems to explore the balance between chaos and order.
My background includes mathematics, engineering, and product design — a path that shaped how I understand structure, precision, and systems. These foundations continue to inform my visual language and way of working.
ODER × ReDo is my studio — a space where art, method, and experimentation meet.
WHY THIS WAY
I explore the dialog between chaos and order — between control and spontaneity, structure and freedom.
It often begins with a blank surface — quiet, neutral, waiting to be shaped.
But this space is never truly empty. It holds tension and the weight of what could be. I call this the Paradox of the Blank Page — where everything is possible, yet nothing exists until the first move is made.
Through folding, asemic writing, and minimalist gestures, I create visual systems that move between disciplines — architecture and drawing, language and abstraction. Sometimes guided by structure, sometimes by chance — always by the rhythm that emerges between hand, material, and meaning.
To me, art is not about choosing between chaos or control.
It’s about learning how to move through both.
