Life in Israel forces us to grow up and live in a warlike atmosphere. In 2000, my older brother was killed during military service. The project deals with my personal experience and with the devastating consequences that war carries with it.

I created remote-controlled ceramic military vehicles. The juxtaposition of the fragile material and the remote-controlled toy brings to the fore the absurdity of military reality in Israel. The project offers a meditation on on the fragility of life that can change in a single moment.
