Her practice consists of long-term projects drawing inspiration from the Israeli pop culture, consumerism, and history. She broaches these topics this by taking on a minor position within established and institutionalised sys- tems such as the entertainment industry, political parties, or internet advertising companies. The materials she collects from her journeys serve as raw material for her projects.
