ARTIST'S STATEMENT:

"I get my ideas by walking on the streets of NYC and observing people and the environment. My topics relate to my experiences in the Holocaust and my life in NYC for the past 61 years. I am also keenly interested in the biblical history of Israel where I feel I have my spiritual roots. Most of my work, at its core, is derived from my emotions and my experiences." - Eva Deutsch Costabel
