At the beginning of my process, I laid out all the jewelry and objects I created during my 4 years at Shenkar. I felt that only a few works could be left out and not put into my display window, almost all my works represented me as a designer and my inner world in one way or another. I noticed that the salient features of my work are very colorful, rich in imagery and a great variety of materials. I have tried to create a specific catalog for my works, to try to divide them into groups so that I can better understand how the presentation of my works will be most appropriate for them and at the same time create an interesting composition for the window.

All my life I have been a sort of a "collector", emotionally attached to items that I have received or purchased during my life and at certain times. So I felt it's inevitable to be inspired by Cabinets of Curiosities because my private room in my home is really my microcosm.
In my showcase, I wanted to create my own version of "Cabinet of Curiosities" (Wunderkammer) to give a sense of intimacy, homelike, not in the classic sense of the word but rather a sense of entering my world.

In order to create the feeling of crowdedness as in the Cabinets, I reduced my work space to the size box that properly wrapped all my work. I created a simple, clean shelving, combined with strange hanging means (which you can find at my home) but flowing and intuitive. Choosing my colors for the window is a combination of my personal taste along with the feel of the Cabinet of Curiosities I wanted to convey.
