Gotta show off a new Devia work!
This is “Six Days of Sitting” artwork my husband Uzi just completed. As usual I helped to touch up a bit. The actual history to this creative work is..Uzi was one of deaf students who were all of sudden transported to the basement of a building when 6 Days War began. He spent 4 days sitting in the basement, in darkness without electricity but with a candlelight that drew all hands of deaf children. They played out thoughts for hours. The back seat resembles a small window concealed with blue paint, a broken iron decorator, and brown tapes taped over the glass to prevent from shattering. On fifth day, everyone got out and had to stay in Jerusalem while Israelis fought on the outskirt of the country until the war finally ended on the 6th day.
