"The pregnant body is so visible, yet so invisible at the same time. Forty years later, not much has changed. Pregnancy remains one of the most misrepresented experiences in contemporary visual culture and fashion."
"I wasn't interested in being only documented. The body itself is an author. And so am I. A vision to welcome the storyteller to the performance, to shift from being the subject to being the storyteller and the performer."
"Our bodies belong to cycles, tides, darkness, and light. In Hebrew, 'the levana' means 'the white,' and she is feminine. She knows we don't want to hide our bellies."
"Mythology and feminine characters from folklore have always been my biggest inspiration. Not as a trend, but as a source of narratives and visual language, strength, ancient knowledge, Mother Nature."
Pregnancy is often misrepresented in contemporary visual culture and fashion. The pregnant body is both visible and invisible, challenging industry norms. The narrative shifts from being merely documented to becoming the storyteller. This expression embraces the physical demands of pregnancy and celebrates the body's cycles and changes. Inspiration is drawn from mythology and feminine folklore, creating a symbolic vocabulary that narrates the experience of pregnancy through art, emphasizing liberation and acceptance of the pregnant form.
