Batsheva Lurie
SHMA ISRAEL
Size Framed: 915 x 910mm
Medium: Acrylic paint and diamond dots on canvas
In this artwork, the artist uses her deep relationship with the verse of Shema Yisrael alongside her connection with the Kotel, the Western Wall, in Jerusalem. It is here where the artist feels closest to her faith and heritage and when saying the words of the Shema, a wave of comfort and serenity washes over her.
