Accessibility statement

1Level of accessibility

The site was built, as far as possible, in accordance with Israeli Standard IS 5568 at level AA, which is based on the WCAG 2.0 guidelines of the W3C.

Accessibility was built first and foremost into the structure of the site itself, so that it works with the screen readers and magnifiers already installed on your computer or phone. In addition, the site has an accessibility widget with adjustment tools.

2The accessibility button and adjustment tools

Every page on the site has an accessibility button that opens a menu of tools for adjusting the display and reading. The tools include:

• Larger text.
• Increased line spacing.
• Changing the text alignment.
• A readable font.
• Contrast modes.
• Grayscale display.
• Link highlighting.
• A clear highlight on the element selected when navigating with the keyboard.
• A reading mask.
• Hiding images.
• Stopping animations.
• Page structure — a list of the headings and links on the page, for moving between them quickly.

The tools work in your browser. Some of them may work only partially on certain elements, such as embedded third-party content.

3What has been made accessible

• Keyboard navigation — you can reach links, buttons and form fields using the Tab key, without a mouse.
• Alternative text for images — images that carry information, including photographs of the works, have an alternative description.
• A text description for every work — each work's page shows its title, technique, materials and dimensions, so the information doesn't depend on the image alone.
• Skip to content — a "Skip to content" link at the start of every page, which appears when you press Tab and lets you jump straight to the content without going through the menu.
• A heading structure that lets screen readers navigate between the parts of the page.
• Language and direction — the site is available in Hebrew and English. Hebrew pages are marked as Hebrew and displayed right to left, and English pages are marked as English and displayed left to right, so screen readers use the correct language.
• Fits every screen size — the site is responsive and adapts itself to computers, tablets and phones.
• Labeled forms — every field in the contact form and the sign-up form has a label.

4Known limitations

I want to be honest about what isn't perfect yet:

• Older photographs of works may include small text embedded in the image itself, which cannot be enlarged or read aloud.
• YouTube videos are displayed in YouTube's own player, and its level of accessibility is beyond my control.
• Press clippings on the Exhibitions page are shown as images. Next to each clipping, the name of the publication, the headline and the date of publication appear as text, and anyone who would like the full text of a particular article is welcome to contact me.
• The works are visual by nature. A photograph cannot fully convey texture, depth and material, so every work is accompanied by a text description. If you'd like a more detailed description of a particular work, you're welcome to contact me.
• Some parts of the site may not yet be fully accessible. I check and fix things on an ongoing basis.

5Accessibility of exhibitions and the studio

My exhibitions take place at outside venues — for example, the Beit Sapir Gallery (Achsadra) and The Artists' House in Kfar Saba. Physical accessibility there depends on the venue itself. For details on the accessibility of the route, the entrance, parking and restrooms at a particular exhibition, contact me and I'll find out for you.

Studio visits are by prior arrangement. If you need an accessibility adjustment, you're welcome to ask about physical accessibility when arranging the visit, and we'll see together what's possible.

For lectures, too, you can request accessibility adjustments in advance, and I'll do my best to arrange them with the host venue.
