Inspiration for this piece steps from the icon of
Pac-Man. Orit visualized the cells in the brain as
small dots and the Pac-Man (the disease) eating
them up slowly. She chose to leave some of the paths
without dots because the Pac-Man already ate them,
and they are already lost. Although the idea for the
piece came to Orit immediately, the creation was
more complicated. The sculpure is painted with car
paint that is suitable to stand outdoors in extreme weather conditions.

Although the disease [Alzheimer's] is difficult, it can be presented
with humour. There are always two options for observation,
depending on which side you choose. I always choose to see things
at an optimistic angle with humour. This is life.
