Artist Statement for "Beloved" Ketubah
Artist: Nishima Kaplan
Original media: Watercolor on paper
You and your Beloved, deeply in love, reach out to create a glowing new Heart, symbolic of your heart-felt commitment to this marriage. You have been searching for each other all your lives, carrying half-a-heart each, dreaming of the moment when your Heart would become whole. At the same time, you respect your Individuality, making sure that you keep in touch with your "center" -- the "bulls eye"-shaped circle cradled and protected by your other hand. Pulsing with primal, vibrant energy, "Beloved" serves as a testament that your marriage is based on two centered people reaching out to create a shared Love and Life together. May you be blessed with a marriage filled with shared joys and ever-growing communion, where your individuality is respected and treasured! Based on the work of Paul Klee, this print is available with or without the African-motif border.
