+{"text":"I work with metal and glass. This is my language. In fusing metal and enamel I integrate ancient and contemporary concepts and techniques. I grew up in Israel and the Middle Eastern influences were crucial for my development as a jewellery designer and maker. Ancient cultures made a great impact on my artistic identity. The texture of the land, the Mediterranean colours and landscape, and the multi-cultural character of the people are reflected in my work. My interest in ceremonial objects centres on the relationship between the person and the object, marking a distinctive occasion. I create personal precious objects that signify an event, a memory and a celebration. Enamel enables me to express myself freely with colour and combine it with my earlier experience in jewellery design. As I construct, join and fuse the elements, the qualities of the material change, the soft material turns hard. Through this process I create three-dimensional objects that combine the unique nature of this ancient craft with my own personal statement. I work with a team of craftsmen skilled in various fields \u2013 from silversmiths and spinners to photographers and computer experts. I find it very rewarding to work in a community of specialized makers who through team work and exchange of ideas engage in this creative process. For the last seven years I have been a co-director of Studio Fusion \u2013 a London gallery dedicated to contemporary vitreous enamel.\nEnamel, particularly the champlev\u00e9 technique.\nGrant from the Arts Council England (East) For Exhibiting at Chelsea Craft Fair.\n1999 Index of Selected Maker by the Crafts Council.\n1964-66 Teacher Training College, Tel Aviv Israel - Diploma in Art Teaching 1966-69 Central School of Art & Design & Production, London.
