BODY = THE NEW RELIGION
Between the years 2015-2019 I presented the artwork "BODY = The New Religion".
This is a methodological research about the Body and its relations to the Self. Without any boundaries between me and my art, my own body was used as a platform for conducting artistic experiments. I totally identified with my Body as a Religion. After a long process of individuation, I have finally integrated into being One with my real Self. Since then, I have applied a new title, “Shlema”, to sign my artwork.
Shlema in Hebrew means “whole”. Within the framework of my art, I have become an independent Body - whole in itself.
