Berit Engen: "WEFT and D'RASH – A Thousand Jewish Tapestries" (2007-present)




OUR PRAYERBOOK (II)
– Words and Chants as We Let Them Flow

Inspired by a fellow artist's paintings of weeping willows by the Skokie River, Illinois, I limited the colors to gray-tinted blues, yellows, and greens and a contrasting red that underlines each tapestry title. 

The etzim-shaped borders on the sides of the tapestries refer to the crème, ochre, and brown-shaded colors of The Seven Architectonic Stones (the second tapestry in the preceding series) in which each shade denotes a specific unit of the service.
