Original framed embroidered fiber art, designed and stitched by Ketzirah haMa’agelet on gorgeous gold-toned linen and framed in a dark walnut stained wooden frame.

The design at first appears to be a Star of David. But the star is filled with fractals, intended to evoke the multi-dimensional merkavah, the Divine chariot of Ezekiel’s visions.

A mizrach is a traditional Jewish amulet or talisman that I love to work with. For me it’s the direction of the sunrise, for others the direction of Jerusalem. According to the JPS Guide to Jewish Tradition, the root of the Hebrew word mizrach (מְִזָרח) means “to cast forth rays” and is also an acronym for mitzad zeh ruach chayyim (מצד זה רוח חיים) “from this direction comes the spirit of life.”
