Community Collaborative Art

 
Hands of Light – Detroit Jewish Federation; 2000.

Two hundred twenty-five Jewish seventh graders and senior citizens from eight different local communities explored Chanukah and how our passionate action can partner with G-d to create a miracle against all odds. Based on their own “mitzvot” (good deeds), they made plaster casts of their hands in gestures espressing how they touch the world. These cast hands were put onto a six-foot globe sculpture with a mosaic large menorah in the center.
