BIOGRAPHY

My art is born from passion. I am drawn to the human body out of deep aesthetic admiration – to the way it moves, stretches, jumps, breathes. For me, creation is a very sensory experience: an attempt to capture a living moment – ​​the energy of the body in the air, the tension between power and delicacy, the thin moment when movement turns into silence.
In painting I try to convey this excitement: the light refracted on the muscles, the internal pulse of the body in movement. Dancers are a major source of inspiration for me, because in them the body speaks a pure language of rhythm, power and emotion. Through their movement, I explore how a body can fill a space with energy.
In sculpture, I work with raw materials – metal mesh, concrete and simple building materials. From these hard materials, I create living figures. This contrast between a heavy and rigid material and a delicate and dynamic human body is the heart of my work.
The mesh allows me to do something I particularly love: drawing in the air. The two-dimensional material opens up into a three-dimensional form, and I embroider the lines of muscles and movement within it. Because of its transparency, the body is not completely closed – the viewer sees both the form and the space within it, and completes it with imagination.
Each sculpture is created entirely by hand, without molds or mechanical means.
Ultimately, my works are an attempt to capture something elusive: the moment when the body moves, breathes and lives – and to leave an echo of energy within the material.
I am a graduate of Communication, Culture and Art Studies (M.A.) and a graphic designer.
I studied painting in Buenos Aires with the artist Jorge Jacobi, as well as figurative sculpture with Pesach Flit, and I studied painting at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
My works have been exhibited in the exhibitions ART&ABOUT (2021), at the Ben-Ami Gallery (2024), and at Zelinsky Rosen (2026).
