Ayelet was born and grew up in Israel, where she studied art and photography and worked as a staff photographer for a leading Israeli magazine.

After coming to the States, she received an MFA from the California Institute of the Arts.

Ayelet is the mother of seven children and has raised many more in the healing home she created in Los Angeles. She has been dreaming in indigenous ways for many years, which means simply that the dreams serve as guides.

“In my dreams I would awaken in the shoes of people touched by war. Soldiers, mothers who lost their sons, women and children from both sides of an ancient conflict. And then, another kind of dream arrived, offering the possibility of an end to war. In these dreams, women – who I had learned to call my “enemy” – came to me again and again and fed me the most delicious bread. This was a surprise, being fed by my foes. I knew that one day I would make them an offering in return.”

That offering took the form of the ADAMÂ Foundation, founded in 2020, with the intention of helping refugees who have lost their homes, their land and their traditions to violence and war. She built her first bakery in the Oruchinga Settlement Camp in 2021. In her words “the act of breaking bread together creates a new narrative of community, healing, and an end to war.”
