Our collaborative mural for the Schechter Institute incorporates text and quotes from a variety Jewish sources, ancient and modern, centering on the concept of creation and learning. Each artist picked a source that they personally found meaningful and painted it on the wall in their own chosen style.
Over the last couple days we’ve had two more special guests add to our mural at the Schechter Institute: David Moss and Jamie Shear. Judy Kopelman added another text of her own, and with that the mural is done. Stay tuned for more photos once the scaffold comes down!
Now that the opening is behind us and Sukkot is over, we’re back at the Schechter Institute to add more layers to our mural there. Painting there today from our team is Lenore Mizrachi. We also have the amazing privilege of three phenomenal calligraphers and designers joining us: Izzy Pludwinski, David Goldstein, and Bentzi Binder.
Judy Kopelman adds her text to the collaborative mural at the Schechter Institutes. Her giant stenciled letters read “מן המקום שבו לא היינו אל המקום שבו לא נהיה” — From the place we were not to the place we won’t be, from a poem by Nathan Zach that speaks about eternity.
We started painting today at The Schechter Institutes! It’s the beginning stages of a collaborative typographic mural that so far has lettering by Hillel Smith over an awesome texture by Shlome J Hayun.
For the collaborative mural at the Schecher Institute, we invited some of Israel’s top calligraphers and designers to join us: Izzy Pludwinski, David Goldstein, Bentzi Binder, David Moss, and Jamie Shear.
