About The Artwork
For the Orchard Street Shul in New Haven, CT, I made photographs of amulet-shaped objects to invoke protection and good luck, images which I assemble only for the duration of the photo session. Orchard Hamsa shows the hamsa, a traditional amulet shape. Its center contains the top half of the shul's aron kodesh: lions, tablets, crown, and sefer; the hamsa shape is echoed in the hands bestowing the priestly blessing. The line markings on the fish are inspired by henna tattoos. With these works I hope to draw positive energy and protection to the shul and aid in the saving of this beautiful building, so that it can reclaim its role as New Haven’s vibrant Jewish center.
