About The Artwork

Playing it Safe is a piece from a series of collages on woods that is inspired by my observations of nature around me, especially the one I immersed in when I go for a run or a walk in the open preserve next to my home in California. I'm interested in the relationship between the hunter and the prey. My work deals with the connection between nature and nostalgia. Using paint and found papers, my practice involves repetitious layering paint and shreds of paper meticulously though allowing for spontaneity. The inhabitants of my paintings are inspired by my present environment; however, they are simultaneously imbued with the past through incorporation of old family photographs, letters, and other found materials. I am interested in how their original meaning is changed by the context of the new canvas.

When I was a child my parents would take our family on nature walks and point out and identify birds. As an adult I feel drawn to the subject of birds, their lives and their environments. The birds I observe here, Blackbird, Blue jay and Mourning Dove, are similar to the ones in my homeland. Just as birds gather pieces for their nests, I gather paper pieces from fashion catalogs, old books, music notes, maps, wallpaper sample books and more to create my birds. I also get inspiration from the flora and fauna outside my studio window. Finding shrubs or a branch that creates just the right environment for the assembled bird. I use scrap paper, acrylic paints and found objects on wood. I am a graduate of Beit Berel College, School of Art in Israel. I work, teach and play in my California base studio.
