TurnArounds


Many of my paintings revealing a surprising new
form and dimension when turned upside down
the protruding becoming the recessive 
and vice versa.

            Masculine and Feminine Waters

  The triangular form or vector pointing upward 
represents what is called by the kabbalah 
the "feminine waters", the movement
or aspiration from below 
to reach a spiritual height, such as in prayer. 
Turning the painting upside down

waters

With the triangular form or vector
pointing downward
transforms it to the "masculine waters", 
the vector of bringing spiritual energy 
into the "vessels" of the mundane world.

The Marriage Dance

dance


Dance is an important element
in the Jewish wedding and symbol

for the dynamics of
the marriage relationship,
especially
if we use
the Hebrew word
for dance, מחול
 "m'chol"
which also implies
making a ring or circle.

Eyeless Peace Doves over the Middle East

The Doves are the universal symbol
for purveying Peace
but when the painting
is turned upside down something
very ominous and catastrophic happens,

Rouhani and a nuclear explosion!

A loving relationship is
the ultimate TurnAround:

Sometimes you are on top
and sometimes on the bottom.
