…Before having created any shape in the World,
Before having produced any form,
He was alone, without form, resembling nothing,
Who could comprehend Him as He then was,
Before creation, since He had no form?…(Zohar).
Last Supper in Pompeii. 32”x 40”. 1999.Oil on canvas.
When Mt. Vesuvius erupted nineteen hundred years ago, the nearby cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum were wiped out. Yet, miraculously, the ashes that rained down on these cities also preserved them like flies in amber.
Inside the remains of a Temple, on the table, is
Silver Patera as commemorative sculpture, Gold Lamp as memory of the lost lives,
And Bowl of Fruit as interrupted life. Sea creatures are falling from the sky.
