Next Year in Jerusalem / Next Year in Person!
Cathy Tasman. 2021. New Beginings. [Fabric]
Artist Statement: Using only remnants of fabric and threads, it gave me much joy to create a whole when before there was nothing. This piece began fifty years ago from my fabric scraps and embroidery thread, but was just completed recently incorporating hand dyed yarn saved from twenty years ago. In this stitched composition, there are many threads and fabric scraps that have come together with love to create something where there was nothing before.
So may our diverse beliefs and cultures come together and seek to establish a bond in spirit with each other, full of tolerance, compassion, hope and peace.
As we pray , “...next year in Jerusalem”, let this be not only the conclusion to the Seder ceremony , but a beginning for all who hope.
