Bio
Born in Kfar Saba, Israel, he graduated from the photography department of the Art Faculty, Beit Berl College (Hamidrasha) in 2007. When living in South Tel Aviv and Jaffa he used to document the refugees seeking asylum on the Neve Sha’anan street and the surrounding area. During this period he developed his style in the field of street photography. Since 2014 he has shared his time between Europe and Israel and focuses on documenting unique street scenes throughout Europe and particularly in Berlin.
