"…they told you that if you wanted to be an artist you shouldn’t have children. And now you tell me this, how am I supposed to feel?" My mother was born in Moscow to a family of a physics professor but chose to become a painter. I grew up in Jerusalem, an immigrant’s daughter, in a home that doubled as a studio. When I was a child I dreamt of working in a fully stocked supermarket where all the products were neatly organized. I wished my mother worked in an office, and
that we had no financial worries. Is it possible to be simultaneously successful in
art and in parenting? Two years ago I found myself pondering this very
conundrum. Looking through the camera lens I am looking for my mother within
her paintings. Picking mushrooms in a Russian forest, meetings with old friends,
reading poetry and listening to the familiar sound of her mother tongue take me
back home.
