About the Rembrandt project:
 
''Through careful observation of his evocative work, Anat entered into a powerful Dialogue over a 2-year period. What emerged is a distinctive, melodious balance of dimension and proportion.
This artistic expression is authentic to both the Master and this contemporary artist. Anat appears to express herself in a very strong and exclusive way.
Her sense of dimension and proportion is accurate as well as the way of rendering is melodiously.
Observing the work of Rembrandt, she has challenged herself into a process of a dialogue With the originals, Maintaining own authenticity and artistic identity.''

Artist statement

Transformations in cultural frameworks and the annexation by overwhelming waves of extreme shifts of mind, often leads to the temptation to abandon the challenges of sophistication and seek the warm cradle of traditions.

I often use this concept as a canvas to illustrate the vicissitudes of existence over time, emphasizing the thin line between primitive and supreme - That, as an attempt to challenge the infinite conflicts between creeds and cultures and distinguish the essence of separate entities.
