Art has always been an integral part of my life. My initial interest was in sculpture, exploring abstract issues of form and material. Light was one of the materials that I was particularly fascinated by - especially the meeting point between the weightless light and densely heavy materials, such as: stone and earth.
Also today the study of light is an important part of my work, mainly as a stills and video photographer. The context is the Israeli reality that is saturated with tensions and conflicts. I tend to work for years on subjects that usually have a social and political tone, such as: checkpoints, distressed neighborhoods in Tel Aviv, the central station of Tel Aviv, and more.
Documenting the Israeli occupation of the West Bank is very major part of my work in the last years. I tend to concentrate mainly on rural areas such as the Jordan Valley and southern Mount Hebron where there is a brutal struggle for control of territory.
