Dung Gate

Multimedia– Acrylic and Collage on Paper
84 x 84cm
 
The Dung Gate was particularly challenging as an art object. Though void of glamor in its name, this gate has the most direct access to the Kotel. It is this distinction that merits a special angle. The couple and moving car in the foreground symbolize the near, the modern. The Kotel in the distance symbolizes the far, the historical, the very origin of mankind just beyond our reach.
