Manna (Hebrew: מָן) or al-Mann (Arabic: المَنّ , Kurdish: gezo, Persian: گزانگبین), sometimes or archaically spelled mana, is an edible substance which, according to the Bible and the Quran, God provided for the Israelites during their travels in the desert during the forty-year period following the Exodus and prior to the conquest of Canaan. Exodus says each day one omer of manna was gathered per family member (about 3.64 litres), and may imply this was regardless of how much effort was put into gathering it; a midrash attributed to Rabbi Tanhuma remarks that although some were diligent enough to go into the fields to gather manna, others just lay down lazily and caught it with their outstretched hands. The Talmud states that this factor was used to solve disputes about the ownership of slaves, since the number of omers of manna each household could gather would indicate how many people were legitimately part of the household; the omers of manna for stolen slaves could be gathered only by legitimate owners, and therefore legitimate owners would have spare omers of manna. According to the Talmud, manna was found near the homes of those with strong belief in God, and far from the homes of those with doubts; indeed, one classical midrash says that manna was intangible to Gentiles, as it would inevitably slip from their hands. The Midrash Tanhuma holds that manna melted, formed liquid streams, was drunk by animals, flavored the animal flesh, and was thus indirectly eaten by Gentiles, this being the only way that Gentiles could taste manna. Despite these hints of uneven distribution, classical rabbinical literature expresses the view that manna fell in very large quantities each day. It holds that manna was layered out over 2,000 cubits square, between 50 and 60 cubits in height, enough to nourish the Israelites for 2,000 years and to be seen from the palaces of every king in the East and West.This is probably a metaphorical statement.

In an age of technological innovation, when the competitive flux of production has taken the place of the physical expression of one's inner universe and imaginary, and after it's obituary has been declared innumerous times over the last 150 years, painting presents itself as an act of resistance. A melancholic resistance that mirrors several times and spaces, between past and present, yet mostly, the extent of an utopian time and space: the inner time and space of its author. What room is there in the world for mystery? What language is there for a logic and wisdom that is not binary? Can we go beyond the argument? What other relationship can you have with the world besides dominance? Listening to the truth of being is the silent response to a being's calling. This silent response is found in painting.
