Artist Statement:
My art is an experience to express myself in an imaginative and visual language, which tries to combine old and new. I try to describe the substance and spirit of the figures through vibrate lines and rough textures. These lines also reflect in a certain sense the violence and tension of the present Israeli society.
The sculptures that I design are figurative with a strong tendency toward the abstract.
The subjects are traditional, but they are presented with innovative elements, which are taken from modern technology and new approaches to drawing and sculpture.
Generally I make figures of men, women and animals, which look sometimes legendary. They are seen deformed, blunt and sometimes grotesque. The finishing degree is like a sketch and they are seen as "unfinished".
I do not like to be engaged in small details: the most important thing for me is to express a general conception and be able to explain the subject, the action and movement of the body.
A part of my inspiration is taken from the old masters, and I try to combine subjects from the past, with an innovative approach.
