Masculine and
Feminine Waters
acrylics
on canvas
20"
x 20" (51 x
51 cm)
The
triangular form or vector pointing downward
represents what
is called by the kabbalah
the "masculine waters", the movement
or
desire to bring spiritual energy
into the "vessels" of this world,
such
as doing good deeds & making tikkun olam.
to the "feminine
waters",
the vector of aspiring to spiritual
heights.
The
Marriage Dance
acrylics
on canvas
20" x 20" (51 x
51 cm)
Dance is
an important element
in the Jewish wedding and symbol for the
dynamics
of the marriage relationship,
if we use the Hebrew
word for
dance, "m'chol",
which also implies making a ring or circle.
Turning
the
painting upside down
we can see the "young couple" forty years later
Eyeless Peace Doves
in the Middle East
acrylics
on canvas
20" x 20" (51 x
51 cm)
The
Doves are a universal symbol
for
purveying Peace but when the painting
is turned upside down something
very ominous and catastrophic happens

Ahmadinejad and a nuclear
explosion!
