Commonly called Jewish Art.
To paint Jewish life and its special symbolism...
Deeply rooted in the Torah, commonly called the Bible (the Book).
Five books inspire and describe an exciting and endless epic.
Written is such a manner that each letter is a door for which we must find the key.
Wanderings, initiatory journey, quest for the sacred. Portions of the sacred that we can carry.
The media or support did not matter much as long as expression could find its way. Stained glass windows for synagogues, religious objects, tableware series, books, watercolors, drawings and paintings. Beyond the ritualistic aspect, the idea is to be moved by the subject.
"The soul of letters" this book on the Hebrew alphabet, was probably at the heart of my work on this theme.
