BIO
Her art explores the critical social issues of our time, capturing the evolving discourse surrounding topics like social injustice, feminism, constitutional rights, incarceration, poverty, and immigration. With each piece, she documents the present, using her work to challenge the status quo and provoke new ways of thinking.
Her perspective as an immigrant and human rights advocate offers a unique lens through which she examines the complexities of freedom, civil rights, and the immigrant experience. By highlighting these themes, her art reflects on the broader human condition, particularly the tensions between freedom and oppression, the pursuit of happiness, and the quest for equality. She invites viewers to question deeply held beliefs and consider alternative viewpoints, moving beyond the polarized narratives that dominate social media and public discourse.
As a feminist and “Artivist,” she engages with her audience through a wide range of mediums, including photography, digital media, typography, lithography, silkscreen, collage, stitching, and found objects. Her work acts as both social commentary and political observation, aiming to spark meaningful conversations about the issues that shape contemporary life.
Ultimately, her art is a vehicle for awareness and change,reflecting the times while also serving as a call to action, urging individuals to engage with the world around them, question their assumptions, and participate in the ongoing struggle for social justice.

STATEMENT
My work grapples with the weighty subjects of race, displacement, and the lies that have been woven into our societal fabric. From the whitewashing of Black American history to the erasure of Native American voices, I explore themes of colonialism, feminism, capitalism, racism, genocide, and femicide. My art seeks to illuminate the invisible human beings around us—the trafficked, displaced, forgotten, and broken. These are the dark corners of society that we’ve collectively ignored, and I aim to shine a light on them.
Through my work, I challenge the status quo and expose the absurdities we’ve come to accept, provoking thought and inviting dialogue. I believe that when we engage in difficult conversations, even when uncomfortable, we move closer to real, meaningful change. As an artist, I see myself as a historian, documenting the times I live in and holding a mirror up to the injustices around us.
One of my current series responds to the alarming rise of antisemitism and anti-Zionism that has swept through public spaces and universities. The dissonance between the October 7th massacre, its perpetrators, and the misplaced victimhood they’ve assumed has been mind-blowing. As the chants of hate grew louder on campuses, so did the sympathy for the abusers, leaving many of us in shock. The adoption of the keffiyeh, once synonymous with the PLO movement under Yasser Arafat, only added to the disillusionment. For Israelis like myself, it felt like the next step in this march of hatred would be the appearance of swastikas.
In response, I am developing a series aimed at challenging the status quo, creating space for critical questioning. In response, My art functions as both an invitation and a call to action, encouraging viewers to engage, reflect, and confront the narratives that shape their perspectives.
