born in 1955 in Tel Aviv. a graduate of Bat Yam Art Institution and Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem.  

After his army service, Sisoke moved to the agricultural settlement of Bekaot in the Jordan valley. Several years later he moved to central Europe, where he designed and erected exhibitions for trade fairs. 

Sisoke’s oeuvre, mainly sculptures and paintings, represents the dialogue between landscape and the Israeli heritage- the myths, symbols and ideology. Also, a dialogue between the spectator and the environment in which the object of art is placed, where a narrative is being entwined with the place and the spectator.

Sisoke’s world view is rooted in environmental and ecological life, articulated in cooperation and educational projects dealing with environmental rehabilitation, art workshops and studies for environmental awerness.
