On the one end there’s my grandmother; everything is connected to her and to
the dynasty of women she pulls behind her, cold faraway places that smell like
Be’er Sheva. At the beginning of the work I swallow a story, a silly insignificant
story. I am in love with the story but the questions motivating me when I
face it are not questions concerning love, but rather questions concerning its
mechanism. My intention is not to obscure something which is clear, but to
somewhat clarify that which is obscure. I invent the work method as I face the
story. At the base of the method lies a question of measure, excess and precision.
The materials and skills used are those of craft. Each artwork has a slightly
different mode of execution, there is no work routine, and therefore training
is required. The two-dimensional tries to be three-dimensional. Someone once
said: it is surprising that the works linger in your memory, despite the fact that
their existence is supposedly within the realm of the negligible.
