The ever-changing life of the land, in particular that of Israel, where I was born, and that of my present home in Northern California, inspires me. As an immigrant, I search for connection between the land and my internal landscape of memory. These landscapes, simultaneously intimate and vast, come together in my work.

Hope, loss, memory and the fleetingness of time are recurring themes in my work. I strive to create intimate spaces that speak of our emotional existence and this ephemeral journey that is life: to tell a story of fragility and strength, vulnerability and resilience.

I have exhibited in 2021 and 2022 at the Mall Galleries in Pall Mall, London, in the annual exhibitions of the Society of Marine Artists. All items were sold.
I also sell at local South London markets such as Merton Abbey Mills and Streatham Village.
In 2022 I took part in the Streatham Festival exhibiting glass art in the craft shop, Creative Soul and in the central library.

I enjoy all the variety glass offers: brilliant colors, transparency and opacity, different sizes, shapes and forms. Kiln-formed glass suits my personality, as I am analytical and a perfectionist, so it gives me time to get things “just so.”

My recent work has been inspired by Richard Parrish’s Tapestry technique (I have had the wonderful opportunity to take two workshops with Richard), pushing the technique in different directions to make it my own.

You will find this quote in my studio in the Netherlands:
“When a crowd moves, it is very similar to the movement of water, which in turn resembles the way trees and plants grow. That is a structure that is shared by all life, even by all material. even lightning with its branches resembles a tree. ”(Giuseppe Penone / NRC 8-6-16)
I am connected to everything around me. I am part of a structure that is shared by all life. That structure is stored in my unconscious brain. And when I work, engrave or draw, that structure comes back to consciousness. What you see in my work is what connect us.

This series of cut fused glass abstract forms do not try to replicate flowers or fauna but, 
to reflect light transmitted onto forms,
 to evoke a feeling of joy and wonderment of our world, 
to forget the current unstable times and replace the painful moments with moments of inner peace and calm allowing the body and mind to heal.
The mental process of making glass reflects my love of growing and nurturing plants. During both processes, my energies and mind are fully engaged thereby eliminating any outside noise or worries thus inducing a period of calm and wellbeing.

We make glass for stores and galleries around the world but our main customers are in the UK and US. Apart from our wholesale range of studio glass we make custom work for both public and private commissions.

A childhood spent in Norfolk by the sea and shoreline continues to be a primary source of inspiration. I use glass to produce forms which fragment and disperse the light creating waves on a shimmering sea and can be shaped by the sounds, language and dynamics of an everyday life lived in a setting of landscape and light.

The Superposition series are a selection of free-standing glass sculptures exploring the transparent nature of fused glass when each individual layer is placed upon another. These translucent, almost unreal sculptures look like they should be as light as a feather or as sweet as sugar. The interaction with light in both the inner and outer surface is delicately beautiful, at times reflecting the colours around the piece to channelling the light through the centre.
