A New Collaboration in the works!

This is still in process but all the parts have been created and we are in the process of assembling it. What is it? ...for now, a humble work in progress. I am collaborating with silk artist Diane Fredgant. The installation will be Wednesday morning when a new exhibit will open at the MJCC. In celebration of Shavuot, we gathered with a number of artists to study Torah text and learn about our community mikvah, Rachel's Well. We met once more in early summer to study with Rabbi Eve Posen. Drawing inspiration from these exceptional teachers and the mikvah itself, the artists have spent the [ast several months creating art. Some of this art will be selceted to be displayed at the mikvah, but meanwhile, the exhibition seeks to inform folks about the mikvah, one of our community's treasures. One of the great challenges to all our artists is crafting art work in our respective media that will not be damaged by being in a moist environment. I'll post the finished product after it is mounted at the show....stay tuned!
