TEMPLE ISRAEL
NATICK, MA
A group of men who referred to themselves as the "Ark Builders" took on several projects over the years at this Conservative synagogue. Among their projects were a Torah table for the bima and a new ark for the sanctuary.
The community felt that a competition for a new parochet would be an appropriate way to secure an artist.
Mine was the winning design.
I created two curtains--- one sheer, of hand painted silk organza and the other, a patchwork of 70 rich pieces.The seven species are quilted into sections of the exterior curtain.
