THE AGE OF REDEMPTION
The Israeli elections in 2022 brought in the most controversial and (as a lot of people think) most dangerous right-wing government in Israeli history under Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. As an artist, I felt the need to react to these political and social challenges in my work. The result is this cycle of paper cuts titled “The Age of Redemption” — a graphic kaleidoscope of the various, often opposing voices in Israeli society. The cycle is a work in progress and is continuously extended at this point. So please visit us regularly to see if new works got added. If you move your cursor over the images you can see close-ups or further important information about each piece.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Some works display words of hate from either side. In no way do they represent the artist’s view but are part of the brutality of the Middle East and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict – and therefore needed to find their place in this cycle.
