Eial Ovin
I was born in Kibbutz Sa’ar in the Western Galilee. Kibbutz Saar sits a few miles away from the Lebanon border, in a magnificent setting of earth and sea. My life was always a balance of extreme adventures, exploring the outdoors and wood crafting. Years after combatting with PTSD, I found woodworking to be my home, again. The Healing Mezuzah Project is a place where I take the experiences of my past and use my love of crafting to make Olive-wood from my kibbutz into Mezuzahs. A feeling of home.
