I created the "Beach Ball" sculpture for the first time in the summer of 2019 in collaboration with the summer of 2022.

The Beach Ball is made of thousands of plastics that have been collected along with Israeli shores. It reflects the amount of plastic we buy and discard, aiming to raise awareness about reducing single-use plastics on beaches.

When you see it on the shore, you'll find a colorful and mesmerizing sculpture, but behind it stands an environmental disaster that belongs to us all! Over 1,000 items weighing an estimated 250-300 kg were collected with volunteers from the shores, dirt parking lots, access roads, and pathways to the beach.

For me, the Beach Ball has become a life-changing event! The echoes and impact it created made me realize that my art is a tool to convey a message, raise awareness, and inspire change. Another thing I understood is that the sculpture is a trigger, and especially the echoes and documentation of its creation process are significant!

From the moment I received approval to reinstall the sculpture, I began documenting every step of the process – from dissembling the old construction and the disintegrating debris, to collecting the new debris, sorting, connecting, and assembling it.

I invite you to discover here the process of assembling the Beach Ball sculpture.
