About me
My multidisciplinary journey takes place simultaneously on a theoretical and practical axis over three decades. It includes studies dealing with material culture, historical and anthropological aspects, which develop on the timeline and cross continents, religions, and peoples.
Artistic work for me is a journey that connects cultures, languages, sounds, smells, materials, landscapes, and feelings, as all of these are reflected in my works characterized by the use of different and varied materials, styles, and techniques; sculpture, through illustration, painting, and weaving.
My personal migration journey, the feeling of displacement, nomadism, and migration that are expressed in most of my works in the changes in the state of a material, in a constant action of connections between materials, textures, and shapes, in style and rhythm, imprinted in me forever.
All these created an intimate, intuitive, and distinct visual language. This language is expressed in a personal dictionary of concepts and forms that are influenced and draw their inspiration from ancient cultures, peoples, arts, legends, and fantasy. Images reminiscent of animistic, pagan cultures and perhaps mainly imagined cultures or an inner mosaic created deep in the mind in which all my sights and experiences integrate into a whole.
