Ora, Serena and Anika met first in the IFLAC- INTERNATIONAL CONGRES ON CONFLICT RESOLUTION THROUGH CULTURE AND LITERATURE - June 27-July1 1999 in Shavei Tzion, Israel.
Ora did a presentation on "Peace through the Internet and the Media".

From our first contact on, which resulted in spontanious creative on-the-spot activities, we decided to continue creative cooporation between us. Thanks to the Internet, our different locations on the Globe do not form any obstacle to evolve together in our creative projects of which The Masterious Mind Workshop will be the first result.

Otherwise

A dreamcatcher
till this day
People of the Red race
create
beyond the Atlantic
their forefathers spoke pictures
as for the butterfly hunt
the circle
and the act of interweaving
beads for butterfly-dreams
that were caught
in flowery tears
adorned with feathers.

A dreamcatcher
as fish and butterfly birds
the best
to keep
