This piece was the result of “Calling all Artists”. A collaborative study group lead by Rabbi Harry Brechner. The theme was Revelation, studying “the Sinai moment” and the concepts of what is hidden, what is revealed, and how we deal with the mysteries.
Distilling these ideas into an art piece was a unique challenge. I came to feel that Sinai is happening in the collective; an ongoing process and experience; a shared revelation.
As individuals our own face is never known to us, except through reflections. Who we are and we are becoming is reflected to us by the people around us, the world we live in and are constantly creating.
Glass became the perfect medium to bring these ideas together. The variety of textures and translucencies are like the filters through which our perceptions and memories are formed. Layering the glass on glass on mirror allows the faces to float and change as we attempt to get a glimpse of ourselves.
