This original painting traces a journey of light — from the menorah’s flame below, through the rising stones of Yerushalayim, toward the eternal radiance of the Beis Hamikdash above. The menorah symbolizes the light we continue to kindle even in exile, while Jerusalem becomes the vessel that carries that glow upward, holding both memory and hope. Painted in layered burgundies, golds, and soft whites, the composition reflects light that persists despite absence — a quiet tension between longing and faith. This piece was created as a prayer for light, healing, and Geulah.
