I often use fabric and sometimes readymade items, such as panty hose, tree branches, iron and ropes.

So does the collection of smaller art works with stuffed women's stockings.

Using ropes, I alternately connect/ attach/ bind/ fasten.

At the same time, I am very much aware of worldwide changes which were exhilarated during the sixties of the 20th century, with the Women's Liberation Movement, progressing ever since.

Lead by a perspective that the home is a lifetime foundation for humans, I explore all the above through historical events, symbols and a wide range of materials and techniques.

At the same time, needless to painfully remind of so many broken homes and families, as an outcome of October 7th 2023.

My reaction, as of many others was speechless, so when I could finally go back to creating, small pieces of feelings had been poured into my work.

 

My sources of inspiration:

Hermann Nitch, an Austrian artist, who influenced my approach of expressing my opinion with no fear or filters
