Notes:
|
From a series illustrating all the 150 psalms. Psalms 20:3. Artist's comment: "At the top, the letter Yod is cut, in two, leaving the upper part invisible hinting at infinity. Out of the Yud, other letters are tumbling downwards. At the bottom, letters representing people are marching towards the city. When the Third Temple is built, the upper and the lower letters will come close to each other, a metaphor for bridging spirituality and materiality. Our relationship to materiality, today, is degraded and must be elevated to a higher standard."
