I love traveling around the world,
wandering in forests and deserts,
swimming with sharks and climbing
high mountains. It have been in many
European countries, China, India,
Uganda, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji,
Thailand, South Africa, Zimbabwe,
Namibia, Ecuador on galapagos
islands, Peru, bolivia, Argentina -
dream of going to Antarctica. The
world is wonderful and surprising
everywhere. It's like a fairy tale,
which I want to tell in my art: in
sculpture and photography.
First, photography really carried
me away during my travels. Then
photography became a way of my
life. I experience many dreams, very
strange dreams, very mysterious and
paradoxical. Dreams are the way
to ourselves, to our souls and sub-
consciousness, to understanding
ourselves and the world around us.
Isn't the life itself and the world
around us filled with secrets, strange
coincidence, amazing events, fine
ha r m o ny a n d b rig ht f e eling s?
Paradoxes and dreams, secrets
of simple things and mysteries
of distant countries, harmony,
sensualit y and erotica – that's
something I want to show in my art.
Dina was born in Moscow and lives
in Israel.
