Home / The studio

A little safe haven.

I share the space with four amazing artists, in Friedrichshain, Berlin.

Frankfurter Allee 6. Come by appointment to see the pieces lit and the bench they come from.

Keren at her bench, and the door at Frankfurter Allee 6. The sign went up in July 2022.

What’s on the bench this week?

Every object has its own potential. Listen carefully and it tells you what it wants to become.

A box of brass tube offcuts and rings
The brassLeftover brass tubes from my own work and other brass workers, many from Shuki, my mentor in Israel, who taught me lamp building. Messing is German for brass.
The studio, wide: a workbench, shelves of tools and a block of wood on the floor
The roomSome of the fun things I experiment with.
A pink bowl full of old grinding machines and cheese graters
