about myARTwork 
 
     
It is difficult to talk about my artwork displayed on the site without alluding first to the circumstances by which it was created and relevant, as is, the physical location where the "plot" is placed - a small museum - my workplace. 
It is the embodiment of a comeback, a return not only to art creation, but in a sense, to life itself, being almost lost in the dark web of chaos. 
The leitmotif I choose as vehicle for my purpose, has its root in the collection of Jewish ceremonial objects, focusing mainly on the Hanukkah Lamps, whose irresistible presence, charm, elegance and suggestive quality are with me every day. 

 My images are projected on a common emotional setting, in which the close surrounding, in its complexity, molded the layers of thoughts into the free play of new associations 

 The paintings and the poems were created independently, over the last few years, without knowing or planing to ever tie them to-gather; only later on, at some point, it clicked how inseparable these two components are, parts of the same whole.  

The idea of having this displayed on a site appeared to me as a new challenge, an attempt to design it in a way that both options will be available: to see them connected or separated as everyone wishes. 

 Less represented, so far, on the site, but as consistently developed in reality, is the subject of Alliah, the Hebrew synonym for Immigration; being twice an Immigrant, most of my adult life has been spent in adapting and readapting.

I will be  happy to hear from you, comments, suggestions, something meaningful.

  

 Hanukkah is one of the festivals which were added to the Jewish calendar relatively late; the holiday was instituted by Judah Maccabee and his followers in 164 BCE, following their victory over the Greeks and the purification of the Temple
