Innocence & Heritage Material:Mixed media on woodThis enchanting painting done by Oz El Hai, gracefully contoured on a curved shape wood, captures a poignant moment of a child in front of the Tower of David, one of Jerusalem's most enduring symbols. Coated in white car paint with a lacquer finish,both the canvas and its seamlessly integrated frame exude a pristine elegance, enhanced by the three dimensional effect of the frame. The painting depicts a young child, symbolizing innocence and future
it's deep red tone and intricate texture symbolizing abundance
it bursts with familiar imagery and symbols: comic-style POW & WOW bursts
vibrant 3D metal butterflies float
Adorning the Hamsa are colorful metal butterflies and pop art symbols
and the continuous evolution towards peace amidst adversity
and the enduring spirit of love and hope in Jewish culture
The Israeli flag waves subtly amidst the composition
which mirrors the violin's aesthetic with the same white car paint
The contrast between the white background and the colorful butterflies makes the shape of Israel stand out in a bold and artistic way
surrounded by sprays of black and blue
further enhanced by a layer of lacquer that seals and protects the artwork
