In this artwork, “Beautifully Broken”, Cathy uses the ancient Japanese technique Kindugi – meaning ‘to join with gold’ with the intention of taking a broken object, embracing its imperfection, and through re-piecing it together with gold creating an even more beautiful object. The hearts of the Jewish nation were shattered on the 7th October 2023. So much pain, so much grief. Our vessel was broken into pieces. Yet, we continue to witness the strength, courage and resilience of our nation. To rise up from the pain, to re-piece the fragments together in order to emerge united, stronger, brighter and more beautiful; like one man with one heart.
