Lumi di Chanukkah
77 x 57,5 x 4 cm
Canvas, acrylic colours, ink, wood
The work consists of a painting on canvas in a wooden frame. It is a pictorial representation of the contrast between human will and the power of nature, evoking universal symbols: plants, stone, and the sky – terrestrial representations of divine will. The artist highlights the contrast between the laws of physics/ nature and persecution and maltreatment throughout history, and the capacity of humanity to give form and value to the thought and concept of the divine.
