ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The main figure represents the soul, in Hebrew it is called Nephesh. This is how we look before we are birthed into this existence: naked, vulnerable, grafile, naive, innocent, pure. Yet, in this fallen world, we are tempted to protect ourselves by creating a persona, an avatar. We putting on a digital mask in order to participate in the virtual economy, we create a story of who we want to be, highlighting our success and forming an image. The real soul is not the mask. Nephesh longs to be united with the Creator, who looks at the very heart, and do not need an artificial performance. The journey of Nephesh is to learn how to navigate in the world of masks, finding her way back home. Where she belongs.
