Interview: Orit Bergman & Anat Warshavsky

Preferred Pronoun?
She, her

Why did you choose to enter this work?
It is rare to be invited to create a site specific illustration exhibition for children. For use it was an opportunity to work together and create an imaginary world filled with creature.

What’s your favourite thing about your shortlisted project?
We loved playing on the seam between 2&3 dimension illustration, and the fact that people interacted with the world we created.

What excites you most about being shortlisted?
It is always nice to get recognition for the work you create, and a great platform to present it to many more people world wide.

Where do you usually work?
We worked together in Orit's balcony because we needed a big space that we can experiment with different materials, sizes and constructions, for a long time.

How long did it take to complete your project?
From brainstorming to the opening of our joint show- about six months.

What is your dream commission?
We dream of new opportunities to expend our illustrated world, and to be invited to create new site specific exhibitions.

What’s your favourite thing to draw?
Creatures (Orit& Anat) people (Anat)

What is your best tip for other illustrators?
Leave yourself time for aimless play.

What are your plans for the future?
To be invited to do what we love.
