by Nishima Kaplan
". . . kiss me with the kisses of your mouth - for your love is better than wine . . ." (chap. 1:2)
First in Nishima Kaplan's Song of Songs series, A Kiss Like Wine evokes the moment under the wedding canopy, where the bride and groom stand before each other, waiting for the moment when their lives will be entwined.
This collaged ketubbah is constructed from hand-made Japanese paper that is torn, applied, and layered onto board over the course of several days. No sketches of the artwork are done prior to beginning and no instruments other than the artist's hand are used to tear the paper. Sudden inspirations, "accidents" and the natural beauty of the paper are allowed to create the artwork, creating a spontaneous, creative, and mystical artwork.
