We partnered with Kol HaOt and Hutzot Hayotzer, the Artists’ Colony to create this series of seven murals for the seven days of creation. We were honored to add some color to this hub of Jewish creativity just across the street from the walls of the Old City. Here’s the full series of completed murals.
Day 7, Mural 15
We weren’t able to get all seven days of creation finished yesterday, so a special secret team-up stopped by Friday morning to work on the Second Day of Creation — sea and sky.
Day 6, Mural 14: Judy Kopelman
As the day comes to an end, Judy Kopelman finishes the last piece of the day, the Sixth Day of Creation.
Day 6, Mural 13: Eli Kaplan-Wildmann
Making a guest appearance painting the Fourth Day of Creation — birds and fish — is our trusty co-curator Eli Kaplan-Wildmann. It’s his first mural! Though he’s a fantastic set designer so this really isn’t that unfamiliar to him.
Day 6, Mural 12: Yitzchok Moully
Skipping ahead to Shabbat, the Seventh Day, we have Yitzchok Moully, showing how Shabbat brightens the week.
Day 6, Mural 11: Shlome J. Hayun
The Fourth Day of Creation — the sun and stars — is by Shlome J. Hayun. He’s really reaching into the bucket with this one.
Day 6, Mural 10: Lenore Mizrachi-Cohen
Next up with the Third Day of Creation — plants — is Lenore Mizrachi-Cohen, with her wonderful floral arabesques.
Day 6, Mural 9: Hillel Smith
While part of the crew continues painting at the First Station, we begin another series of seven murals at Hutzot Hayotzer, the Artists’ Colony for the seven days of creation. First up is Hillel Smith with Day 1, light and darkness.
