“I have always loved the graphic and graphic design of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, which is very descriptive, colorful and happy. When I was a kid in Jerusalem, Israel, there was no computer, Internet or even black and white television available. What was, was only a little and very modest.

There is something in the artistic stance of the practical artwork of those times that makes up a creative space in combination with child toys and “Israeliana” objects that are captivating and full of compassion and joy. Examples of those are the Whistling Kettle, the Sipulox, the Primus …”
