Born: Melbourne, Australia, 1976

Lives: Tslafon, Israel



My work gives form to the process by which a memory, an observation, or a vision draws me into relation with what is present — a relationship that deepens into an encounter with the energy or “breath” of That Which Is. I seek to render this subtle essence. Through this practice, I create visual images that evoke mental-scapes, insights and felt sensations — that invite a more intimate connection with ourselves and a more, resonant way of being together in the world.
