Director Statement

During my years at Bezalel, I developed a style that incorporates elements of artistic, documentary and experimental video. I have always been interested in gender, in cognitive psychological thinking, and in the way in which these two are expressed in my image as a woman struggling to find her place in an environment steeped in a battle heritage fueled by shifting and destructive power relations. At times I included sketches in my videos that also touch on gender issues, touching upon the dismantling, transforming and refining social concepts and stances in Israeli society.
