The name Maïell was inspired by the word combination of Maïa & Hillel.
They randomly met in Paris in October 2018. Maïell became official in 2019
after presenting their exhibition called A portrait of Tel Aviv.
Since then, they focus on both Photography and Video and creating short documentaries and fiction films between France and Israel.
