Orna Bromberg born 1955, Tel Aviv, Israel. Lives and works in Israel.
For Bromberg the paintings are a story; a story with no plot, which unfolds through the minor variations occurring between one work and the next in an endless chain. The painting process resembles that of writing a diary. In her works a congealing of a childhood moment repeats itself constantly, and is expressed in the use of a small group of images in many different methods and contexts; the girl with the matchstick legs, fish, flowers and prey birds. Her choice of a seemingly naïve and 'childish' style of painting holds a struggle with terrifying nightmarish themes.
