Summary/Artist Statement: Roots are vital for plants, anchoring them and absorbing nutrients. They also carry symbolic meaning, representing stability and heritage. Moving to New York sparked a longing for my own roots, blending my Israeli heritage with the urban energy. Through my art, I find harmony between nature and city life, symbolizing resilience and a sense of belonging.
