Roy Nachum (born 1979 in Jerusalem, Israel) is a contemporary New York based artist.

Nachum studied at the Bezalel Academy of Art in Jerusalem and at The Cooper Union School of Art in New York. He is primarily a painter in oil but works in a variety of media including sculpture and installation.

He combines surrealistic figuration, color and movement with the descriptive language of poetry and is the first artist to employ tactile Braille poetry on the surface of his canvases, breaking the barrier between art and touch. The Braille poetry strikes a variety of emotional chords in blind readers, allowing them to be part of the experience of visual art.

Nachum’s paintings engage in themes such as vision, touch, movement, emotion and character. The work often employs a method that mimics “double vision”. This method conveys movement and emotion, creating optical illusions and fractured perspectives. Nachum is represented by Joseph Nahmad Contemporary in New York.
