Many of the featured artists and creators experienced persecution or loss because of their identity, while for others, trauma is present as an intergenerational shadow. They created from a place of inner vision and in dialogue with the world of Jewish spirituality. Their works give voice to individual and unconventional perspectives and reveal personal interpretations of traumatic reality.
For most of the creators, art was a means of exploring and mapping the unconscious dimensions of the human psyche, and a necessary stage in forging a safe space in which to rebuild their lives. Through symbols and traditions of the past, they articulate a new world that makes life possible: a vision of new bones.
