I learned in grade-school that after WWII European politicians considered sending Jews to Madagascar instead of Palestine. At the time I thought: Madagascar would've been so great.

I haven't made art about Israel. There's a covert subtext of Jewish identity in my artwork.

My family gets incredibly tense and stressed out around traveling. There's something really beautiful in that vulnerability.

I'm glad that Jewish kids are taught about the Holocaust and other stories in our history, but I wonder if there are ways that this information and narrative can be transmitted differently.

As you grow and change, you become possibly someone else. You want to go back to your family of origin and say, ‘Do you still love me? Would you still love me if I become X or Y or Z? When will you stop loving me? Is this unconditional love and if not what are the conditions?’

You have to totally change the way that society's structured in order to being to heal.

Because so many rooms are run by men they're just used to women being the "that" - to be adored and dreamed about.
