Bareket Kezwer’s mural “Both&” at the Miles Nadal Jewish Community Centre in Toronto inspires us to consider the plague of binary thinking. Passover is a holiday celebrating the duality of freedom and slavery, a time when we intentionally hold the paradox of life—the inseparability and interdependence of seemingly contradictory phenomena.
Bareket is the first of our artists to finish her mural! She worked over the weekend to add her signature bright colors to the Miles Nadal JCC in Downtown Toronto, completed on December 6. The kids coming into school are in for a surprise this morning!
Bareket Kezwer is a Toronto-based visual artist, muralist, curator, community organizer and eternal optimist. Her work is motivated by a desire to spread joy, cultivate gratitude, and foster new social interactions.
It’s been such a blast seeing people enjoying our new work at the First Station. We’ve put together an album of all the art we’ve painted there so far. Check it out!
Bareket continues painting her mural at First Station, and we can see the design taking shape.
Artist Bareket Kezwer helps us cap up the Festival by painting one final mural at the First Station.
The Jewish Street Art Festival presented a series of murals as a part of Dwelling in a Time of Plagues, a coast-to-coast Jewish artistic response to contemporary plagues. The works for Dwelling in a Time of Plagues reinterpret the themes of Passover in response to our times.
