Unique, evocative and compelling... Artifacts of Jewish Identity
Artist: Barry Goldstein
At the intersection of fine art and Judaica. Raw. Organic. Archaeologic. Judaic works infused with an essence of Jewish identity, heritage, and roots.
The "Heart of the Onion" is a metaphor for a journey -- peeling through layers of raw feeling and emotion; peeling away layers of conditioning and illusion; and connecting with a burning fire within.

Seven foot tall head, sculpted with tree branches held together with invasive vine; clay and beeswax. Guests embedded written notes of issues they hoped to let go of; and the entire sculpture was set in flames on a makeshift pyre.
