Born and raised in Kibbutz Kfar Blum. In the last couple of years my work focuses around hunger, feeding, and food. An affluent society that creates hunger: spiritual, physical, and emotional. An abundance that neither fills nor nourishes. My final project in art at Oranim received the highest honors.
​
Text from my final project: I paint food in order not to be hungry, in order to sink into an imagined present, into materialism, into small and ongoing acts of decryption, slow and steady decryption of nuances, small exactitudes of uniqueness. Food without spirit, feeding without air. The time spent facing the images softens the fear of the end and allows ends to be prolonged. Slowness and tardiness attempt to form a bulwark against the fast-moving, all-trampling, homogenizing commonness - to compress and fill in a bit of plenitude amid a reality of hunger.
