Laurie Wohl, an international artist based in New York City, is opening a
one person show "On Wings of Prayer" at the
Philadelphia
Museum of Jewish Art in September.
Cascading streams of unraveled thread characterize
Wohl’s Unweavings® fiber art. The work conveys narratives through form,
color, texture and calligraphy. And through these narratives the pieces
become carriers of her individual and our collective memories. The unweaving
“Ne’ilah,” which refers to the concluding service on Yom Kippur, was created
for this exhibit (image to the left) which coincides with the High Holy
Days. The form of the piece suggests a gate to prayer, with the Hebrew text
taken from various part of the Ne’ilah service. Click to view works
from "On Wings of
Prayer".
