In all my activities as a therapist, author, poet and artist I am driven by the desire to understand and give expression to the human emotions and existential anxieties in order to struggle for life. I am interested in the ability of people to live on the edge of the abyss. I feel the need to ease people's suffering and distress and help to enhance their ability to undergo development and growth. Along with this, I have a personal need to express myself through art. My earliest artistic works, mood drawings and bronze busts, reflected the results of my examination and observation of the inner human world and the emotions revealed in facial expressions. With my growing knowledge of myself and other people, I attained deeper understanding of our weaknesses, our strengths, and the immense efforts we make to overcome difficulties and obstacles in order to survive in the precarious reality of our lives. Through my art I try to express the deficient, vulnerable, ephemeral and perishable nature of human existence in the struggle of life. The artistic materials that I use are, like us humans, organic, soft and perishable materials. For example, old broken window frames and hand-made tapestry, torn cloth sheets and baby toys, torn fragments of plain paper. These fragments, free of any fanciful esthetic addition (such as paper cuts or origami), expose the material as it exists – naked, soft, vulnerable, fragile and transient, like the existential nature of life. My bits and scraps are the loss of beloved people. My bits and scraps are partings. They are painful blows, and they are my certain death. I glue my bits and scraps together and create my life
