"Clouds above Ein Hod" is my current body of work.
Using photography to study composition in clouds, I have renewed my childhood curiosity, animating and dramatizing shapes in wind driven vapor.
Through the years I have announced titles for bodies of work, each one could last a few years, and this has governed my way of life.
I study to enhance my concepts by using different techniques, tools, and materials, such as iron, wood, stone, printing, painting, drawing, and photography - endless seeking and searching for fresh points of view.
It is my need to record events, emotions, beliefs, creativity and passions, both metaphysical and spiritual.
Presenting forms, shapes, and objects to people plays an important part for me, a way to create in the viewer an involvement that I hope will last.
It is one's personal expression and style that gives a significant statement.
