Stones on Fire #4:
My Dove in the Cleft
of
the Rock -
יוֹנָתִי בְּחַגְוֵי הַסֶּלַע
acrylics & mixed materials
on canvas
18" x 24" (46 x 61 cm)
In the center of the painting
one may see
the form of an angelic Dove, suggesting
the above phrase
from the Song of Songs (2:14).
The Dove symbolizes the Jewish people,
finding shelter from
its many
predators and enemies,
by clinging
to the Rock of Faith.
In this painting one can discover
various
emerging faces
or visages of women,
as if the Wall itself has recorded
and absorbed its many female visitors,
whose prayers are always
heard,
because they come
from the innermost recesses of the heart.
