This spring I was in Paris for the first time. As a photographer interested in architecture and iconic historical sites, it was clear to me that the Eiffel Tower would definitely be photographed. And, of course, the question arose - how to photograph in such a way that it does not look like in thousands of pictures taken before me... One morning I woke up early and started my way to the Eiffel Tower. I walked for hours without approaching the Eiffel Tower, observing and exploring from afar... This is how the series "Exploring the Eiffel Tower" was born.

Born in Leningrad in 1972, in a family where photography took impotent place in family life. My dad taught me how to take pictures, develop films and print photos. In 1989 we moved to Israel. I served 3 years in the army, graduated from the Civil Engineering Faculty at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. But after 3 years working as an engineer, my love for photography led me to photography school. And from 2005 I became a professional photographer. I believe that art can change the world for the better place.
