I was born in 1977 in Jerusalem and am currently based in Brussels.

In my practice I adopts a contemplative approach to daily life and uses multiple media including sculpture, video, painting, drawing and writing. Drawn from my personal religious upbringing I explore in my works existential issues, touching upon epistemology, ethics and mysticism. These subject matters comprises reflections on the question of authority, examining contemporary formulations of spiritual redemption, and the complexity of care within a capitalist social structure.
