Bracha Lavee is an Israeli artist whose expressive art combines Jerusalem, Israeli and Bible themes with a contemporary visual style which is deeply rooted in ancient and modern biblical experiences. Her use of felt in bright, semi-tropical colors allows her to express these themes dramatically.
This beautiful piece, entitled "The Other Jerusalem" depicts buildings of Jerusalem on the bottom with a "Heavenly" Jerusalem above, nestled in the sky. The "other Jerusalem" is done entirely in gold foil which gives it that aura of mystery.
