In short
The writing behind a two piece print collection. Gvurah means courage, strength and inner discipline, shown through a butterfly motif of metamorphosis. Or Halevana, light of the moon, carries the prophetic idea that the light of the moon will one day shine as brightly as the sun.
This two-piece collection explores feminine power in its many forms
- wild and soft, luminous and grounded, ancient and futuristic.
These women exist outside of time: both tribal and celestial, earthly and transcendent.
Hebrew words and sacred phrases are woven throughout the collection. In Jewish mysticism, the feminine is often symbolized by the moon — a light that reflects, transforms, and ultimately rises.
One recurring phrase,
Or Halevana
(“Light of the Moon”), expresses a prophetic idea: that the light of the feminine will one day shine as brightly as the sun.
They are invitations to remember a deeper power: luminous, ancient, and already within.
Gvurah (גבורה) — Courage
Gvurah
means courage, strength, and inner discipline. It is the force required for transformation.
This piece portrays courage not as aggression, but as evolution. The butterfly motif appears both within the figure and her environment — a symbol of metamorphosis and the bravery required to become something new.
Organic elements merge with retro-futurist textures, placing the figure between worlds: who she was, and who she is becoming.
This work honors the sacred moment of transition — the threshold where courage becomes transformation
Or Halevana (אור הלבנה) — Light of the Moon
This piece embodies the archetype of the feminine as cosmic force — radiant, sovereign, and undeniable.
The central moon glows with a translucent intensity, echoing the sacred phrase written within the work:
“The light of the moon will shine as brightly as the light of the sun.”
In Jewish mysticism, this speaks to a future restoration — a time when the feminine light will fully rise into its power.
The figure appears both warrior and oracle, grounded in tribal strength yet surrounded by a retro-futurist cosmos. Harsh contrast and luminous color create a sense of dimensionality, allowing the work to radiate outward into the space around it.
This piece represents emergence, sovereignty, and the quiet inevitability of rising light.
