I was born and live in Ramat – Gan, Israel. Work as a graphic designer for the fashion industry in the last twenty years.
I began to interested in photography about twenty years ago, studied film B&W photography at Camera Obscura, Tel Aviv.
In the last years, I am focusing on street photography. Places in which I photograph are Mainly Tel Aviv streets and sea coast, Jerusalem mainly the ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim.

About The Collection
The collection in front of you contains some topics that I work on.
Street photography in general. Animal photography in the urban space and surrealistic documentation of life in the Mea Shearim.
The basis for all my work and common to all these subjects I dealt with in photography is catching the surreal moment and the absurd of human life.
At the moment I have no preference for a particular photography technique and I shoot according to the situation. I usually shoot in high contrasts of light and shadow and sometimes I prefer to use flash and sometimes just shoot.
