Where unlikely materials become friends. Bold floral paintings, sculptural pomegranates, Judaica and playful ceramics, each piece made by hand and never repeated.
The work
Twenty-three pieces from Rebecca's studio: her newest floral collection, pomegranates, Judaica and sculpture. Every piece is handmade and one-of-a-kind. Tap any piece to see it larger and ask about it.
Featured piece
“White on the outside. Deep red and gold within.”
Three sculptural pomegranates emerge from a textured white landscape. Similar at first glance, yet each one different, each carrying something deep and precious inside.
The pomegranate runs all through Rebecca's work: a symbol of abundance, beauty and new beginnings. It turns up as ruby-seeded slices, at the heart of a Hamsa, and holding the Shamash on a Hanukkiah.
Ask about this pieceUnlikely materials
Rebecca works in clay, resin, wood and mosaic, and she loves a material nobody expected. A few of the transformations:
Dry-cleaning hangers
Two couples bent from wire. One pair on black, turned away. One pair on white and gold, holding each other.
Wood bark & brass cartridges
A one-of-a-kind Hanukkiah, rustic, unexpected and full of character.
Wood bark & a pomegranate
The pomegranate at its heart holds the Shamash: abundance, blessings and light.
Clay
Funny and useful. A little character for your table, guaranteed to make you smile.
A Hamsa's journey
This Hamsa, mosaic glass on gold with a pomegranate at its heart, travelled all the way to Kingston. She now hangs in the hospital room of a police constable who was hurt protecting the community, watching over him and his family.
He protected our community. Now may this Hamsa protect him.
