<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's kind of strange that although one of my favorite activities in daily life is wearing customs and personas, Purim, the Jewish custom holiday, makes me feel helpless and confused. In fact, I almost never manage to find a new custom for this day and year after year, I find myself wearing the most exotic and challenging disguise of all: that is, the disguise of A Woman.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you happen to be "a natural woman" as in the song of Aretha Franklin, this may sound kind of ridiculous</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to you</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, but as for me, I don't even believe you exist. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"A woman is not born: she is made", said Simone de Beauvoir and as you can see in the following images, without the right gestures and accessories, you will be in the danger of passing as an unidentified creature and even worse: as your Self!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So my advice to you, dear sisters, for Purim (and for life), is: whether you choose to be a clown, a policewoman, a super-heroine or an Oreo Cookie: Show some skin! Keep it sexy! Don't make them forget what you are!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Happy Purim, you naughty girls you... </span><br />

</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These images were created a few months before I became the photographer of Israel's National Institute of Forensic Medicine. Unlike most types of photography, from journalistic to fashion to Instagram, forensic photography's sole aim is to document and reveal the truth, regardless of aesthetic, personal or political considerations. In forensics, there is no place for self expression nor for artistic creativity. The forensic photographer working in the morgue is like an extension of the doctor, and has to folllow her or his instructions with precision and atention, using the camera as a scientific, rather than an artistic tool.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel very lucky to be a forensic photographer. This kind of work has provided me with the oportunity to learn anatomy, medicine, criminology, anthropology, pathology, osteology... and has given me the rare chance to face directly, on a daily basis, the deepest fears of human kind. Somehow, the intensive contact with death has increased even more my love for life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But of course, aestheticly, speaking, staged death can be marvelous. And it doesn't smell.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's been a while since I created a brand new image just for the sake of it. In the last few months, video, performance and writing almost made me forget how wonderful it is to just visualise something in your imagination and make it come true without preconceptions, references and theories, and especially: without having to write brilliant proposals!!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, I am extremely happy with this image, shot last Saturday with the help of my </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">beloved partner Revital after a night drinking and playing with our friend's Oz and Mariana's bizarre toys (these finger tentacles, for example). The name of the piece, "The Birth of Adam" was invented yesterday, drinking some wine in the company of another good friend (Adam :)).</span></div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This sad little princess was given to me in Mexico City by my childhood friend Daniela, who got it in her turn as a present for her newborn daughter. It's quite alarming and extremely ridiculous that even today, in the 21th century, people still think it's a good idea to give a baby girl a doll that is unhugabble and includes manicure, realistic breasts with nipples, high heels, earrings, makeup and a dress that no human being could feel confortable in. I mean, was the baby supposed to play "mommy" with this femmuncula?! or was this inanimate and grotesque reproduction of a "woman" supposed to be her role model!? Anyhow, Daniela decided to get rid of the freak A.S.A.P and as soon as I got to Mexico, she gave it to me. Of course. 3 weeks afterwords, Selena made her way with me to her new home, Tel Aviv. Now she is my role</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> model. And daughter.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">OK. This post is an attempt to be back. In new shapes, for one of the reasons I quit my beloved blog 6 months ago was my self-imposed intent to be coherent. They say an artist is like a trademark and therefore has to be recognizable in content and style. Fuck that. Coherence is ridiculous. And the aspiration for it is a prison cell. We are all so full of contradictions. Specially me.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, this image was taken today in the office (I have a new job).</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It is part of a series, though I haven't decided yet what to call it. Jellyfish sounds fine for now. I hope you like it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These self photographs were taken late at night, at a park in the suburbs, last January (yes, I was freezing). After reviewing them, I decided to enhance the performance and film it. The result, called NIGHT WALK, will be screened this Thursday in CCA, Tel Aviv, and you are all invited to see it, together with other works by other wonderful artists. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know this scenery looks like a computerized setting, or like a low budget imitation of the set of Truman Show, but no. This image was taken 40 minutes from Tel Aviv, somewhere in the Israeli suburbs (did anyone notice, by the way, that the term "suburb" is a derogatory one, made of two words actually?). Anyhow, I am sure some of you already noticed this piece is a parody (and a parody is also a kind of a homage), to one of Helmut Newton's most famous images, and one of my favorite ones. I call the result "anti-glamour". My suburbian-lunatic-wanna-be-diva looks so stupid in it, and the truth is I love her for that! I hope you do too...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So much has been said lately about my ironic pursuit of childhood and playfulness through photography, and I can only agree with that, of course. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This self portrait, taken after Sally Mann's photograph of her daughter in a futile intent to become someone's baby again (futile because I'm a woman, not a baby; futile because I am the creator of the image, before being the model or the object), is a perfect example, I think, of this game I'm playing without any chance to win.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyhow, today I'm travelling to visit my parents in Mexico and try to be their baby again, so this post is also a goodbye for a few weeks.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's been such a long while since I had time to play with Lego, to fool around with my camera without a fixed artistic purpose, to create something other than buzz around <a href="http://erev-rav.com/archives/23808" target="_blank">PLAY </a>. Finally, the day before yesterday a miracle happened and I found some time to refresh myself.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is one of the results - a living room landscape with a Lego piece I built over a month ago (poor baby, a whole month waiting to be photographed and destroyed). I hope you like it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Accidentally, a few days ago I erased the post with this image, featuring now in a sales exhibition organized by <a href="http://www.sitespecificagency.com/" target="_blank">Site Specific</a>, in Cheetah Gallery (Hahashmal 33 Tel Aviv). It's strange, cause you can always upload an image again, but in a blog, you can never go back to the date the post what written, nor to it's exact content.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, you are all invited to go and see the real thing, in the real world... you are also more than welcome to buy it :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now that that my exhibition <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/127411274117435/" target="_blank">PLAY </a>has been launched, I can finally share in my lab a piece from one of the series taking part in the show. This is Play Ground 1, and it is part of a triptych (a series of 3 pieces). If you want to see the rest, just come visit: Yehuda Halevi 79, Wed. and Thu. 11:00-19:00, Fri.-Sat. 11:00 -15:00.</span></div>

And for those of you who still haven't contributed but want to do so, this is your last chance: 24 hours to go and the campaign is over:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the beginning, I didn't think I'd use this image, taken in my kitchen a few weeks ago, but then came a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/%D7%94%D7%90%D7%A7%D7%93%D7%97-%D7%A2%D7%9C-%D7%A9%D7%95%D7%9C%D7%97%D7%9F-%D7%94%D7%9E%D7%98%D7%91%D7%97/160175817353648?viewer_id=682920318" target="_blank">campaign </a>against domestic violence, where citizens urge the Israeli government to forbid security guards to take their weapons home (a permission resulting in many women injured and killed by their partners).</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So... now that it has meaningful purpose, I am becoming more fond of this image of mine and have decided to publish it in my Lab.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really hope you enjoy it, and please don't forget to get in my <a href="http://igg.me/at/Rinat/x/2494259" target="_blank">campaign </a> and CONTRIBUTE to my solo show, PLAY, comming up in April 18, as much as you can!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is an image I really wanted to exhibit in my first<a href="http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/play--2/x/2494259?c=home" target="_blank"> solo show</a> (April 18 - May 18, P8 Gallery, Tel Aviv). In the end, the curator and me decided you can not show everything the first time. I believe he's right, and still: having a blog permits you to do whatever you feel like, instantly :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is how I see while photographing myself. When off the set, I wear glasses that help me see the world clearly, but somehow, I have never gotten myself a pair of contact lenses to help me while I work. This is why, although I am usually a a meticulous photographer and a sharp one too, every time a self portrait comes out focused, I feel as if a miracle occurred.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, this image proves that focus isn't always the point. Sometimes, it's just the opposite.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think the answer is no. First, because I usually don't hide my Self, but try (and sometimes fail) to expose it as much as I can. Second, because the beautiful and convincing actress in the picture is not me, but my partner - Revital - with one of my wigs. And third, because if I was Cindy Sherman, I would probably be much wealthier then I am right now. And more famous.</span></div>

To be comprehensive and supportive and giving and altruistic (because it is for self sacrificing that women, even little girls, are best rewarded in male dominated society - how clever of them, of course!) . </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was never rewarded for any of these. I don't want to be nobody's mother. I want to be recognized for my art skills, for my wit and for my strength in the field of life. I want to be forgiven for my selfishness, to be taken care of, to be fed by others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last week I came across some of<a href="http://erev-rav.com/archives/22066" target="_blank"> Gal Volinez's</a> breast feeding work. The context of the works is totally different, but I thought to myself: maybe it's time to share these images, that I guess are sketches for a piece still to come.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image on mine was published last week by<a href="http://www.p8gallery.net/" target="_blank"> P8 Gallery</a>'s page, together with an interview with me around my work. It belongs to the series "Angie". Apparently, someone complained about it's contents and it was banned, together with the funny things I had to say about art and life in general. I don't know if it's a pity or not, but I find it really sad that a nude female body (MY body!) is seen as disturbing or violent where hatred and vain ideas are being spread all the time without ever being censored. Just turn on the TV for a moment or listen to a conversation on the bus and you'll know what I mean.</span></div>

The name of the book is "Look at the Same Cloud Twice", and on it's back there is a beautiful poem about a flamingo - about the flamingo as the guardian of the Poet's solitude. Somehow, it reminded me of these images I took some time ago, although my flamingo is made of plastic and lives in the bathtub, not in a lake :).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes I do different things, and it's always very difficult to choose what to publish (and what not to publish) in my lab. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For example, s</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ince I began working on my solo exhibition (March 14-April 5,<a href="http://www.p8gallery.net/" target="_blank"> P8 Gallery</a>, Jaffa), I haven't published any work concerning that project, so you all have a good reason to come, see some new pieces and have a surprising experience, I hope :). </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nevertheless, here is a piece from another series of mine, this time documentary and quite different from my usual work, I think. The series is called Orot ("Lights"), and it includes 8 long exposure images taken in Tel Aviv beach during last summer, at night. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This one in particular is going to be exhibited in "<a href="http://www.facebook.com/breadroses.artsale" target="_blank">Bread and Roses</a>" art sale (December 22, Minshar Gallery, Tel Aviv) organized by <a href="http://www.wac-maan.org.il/" target="_blank">Maan</a>, a worker's organization that promotes employment for Arab women in Israeli society. As every year, the profits from the art sale will go to Maan's project "Women and Work".</span></div>
