Chairs and Sculpture,Woman Enveloped and Grandma's personal diary Photograph - Limited Edition of 10

As an artist engaging in two fields – digital art and sculpture – I created this series by the integration of both fields. I gathered chairs which belonged to different generations in my family and combined them with the sculptures I create. Each sculpture is a kind of portrait of myself during a certain period of time, reflecting my experience during this time, and the chairs represent the history of my family and the different characters who played a part in it throughout history and created the familial lineage, which is intertwined with the complex history of the country in which I was born and of their ordeals prior to their arrival in Israel as well as after the establishment of the State of Israel. Both were integrated into the landscapes and the scenery characteristic of Israel and personal belongings brought to Israel by members of my family from their homelands. It is by the use of the sculptures, objects, and landscapes that I link my own biography to the story of the different generations in my family, one which, at times, is not simple and involves pain, loss, and struggle. There is a fine line separating pastoralism and drama in the works, the contrast between the two being emphasized with great intensity by the joyous, alluring colorfulness and pastoral landscapes against the hidden, dramatic messages of the sculptures and the historical objects. The landscapes may seem surrealistic; however, in actuality, they are telling a true autobiographical story with which many individuals could identify.
