“The sea and the desert are part of me. My paintings reflect the landscape of Eilat, the sun, the desert sea. While I was painting with the rag, an unfinished flamenco dance was created for me. The painting is reminiscent of the clicks on the canvas like the flamenco legs. My painting is abstract, I show my love for the sea and desert landscape and the dialogue between them. In the painting of the mountains and the sea, the power of nature and its power in the Gulf of Eilat are expressed, the palms are a symbol of desert vegetation and experience in the Eternal City of the Sun...”, says Shir.
