"Monumental moments of Biblical inspiration" By Doron Polak The continuous artistic work of Yehudit Oficyner is quite unique in the context of local art and combines styles of South American artists with classic Jewish subjects. Her colourful paintings include a big surrealistic quantity of objects whose functionality is not always clear, paintings accurately delineated and in general, find themselves on a chosen constructive background. In these pictures we see a very interesting influence of organic objects like body parts, fruits and vegetables that we find in nature and a large variety of flowers and plants both real and imaginary. The artist has her own world of images and rhythmical open spaces of fantasy. It is important to stress that Oficyner does not follow any defined and known artistic movement and it is even more difficult to include her work in an updated fashion of the contemporary creation world. In that lies her uniqueness. Visiting an exhibition of Yehudit Oficyner ensures a journey to a world of fantasy, personal, full of images, new and unknown associations. The viewer is assured a time of traveling trough a world of symbols and imagery and is thus challenged to decipher the code of the mystery the paintings conceal.
