Thousands of Yellow Ribbons" – A memorial of the Twins and the 3'000 lives behind the victims"
Inspired by the illusive scenes of the Twins collapse, I virtually unconsciously painted a Painting of the twins, which I entitled "Thousands of Yellow Ribbons ". This picture as well as reproductions (replicas), have been purchased by the office of our former Prime Minister, as souvenirs for American official guests of the state of Israel. Likewise, I would like to share with you my joy following a visit of the USA ambassador in my studio, during which he expressed his deep impression of the picture
I sincerely believe that this picture, which is a memory of the three thousand victims of the terrorist attack, may radiate to observers the spirit of the twins and the lives behind the victims.

When I listen to music I imagine forms and colors
