I
live and work in tel aviv
in a studio and in a deserted beach.
I
paint with a wooden box on my knees . I have canvases that are mounted on wood
and cardboard. I paint with a palette knife but also with brushes.
I
paint from looking but also from my imagination. Many times I connect things I
see in the landscape with my imagination. I deal a lot with materials.
In
this
last year I rediscovered techniques of hot wax, pigments and stucco.
Many
paintings deal with one figure . There is no narrative but the painting is like
a scene out of a story. There are
figures that loose or find something, like a woman with a cat, a child with a bird.
The
interactions
between the figures are moments where feelings and movements of the body are
the main subject.
In
the
paintings I deal with the materiality
and the thickness of the wax and the acrylic, the strength of the pigments help
me solve the painting.
