The year 1993 was a turning point in my career. I decided to stop working on new exhibitions for two years, and go inside to deepen my artistic path. Eventually it took me 7 years. It was the most important period of my career.
In the year 2000 I started the partnership with artist Lital Dotan, and we are creating together ever since.
