depicted his Shekhina as a flesh and blood woman, rather than
some figure in a foggy mist in a cloud somewhere. "This work is my
quest for insight, the exploration of my own spirituality, and, as

with the female figure for a while before he started thinking of it as
spiritual work and now says "What I’m dealing with in that thematic
area is probably the most interesting and profound work that I’ve done.
It has to do with a number of issues such as the masculine/feminine
balance, materialism vs. spirituality, good vs. evil, and beauty and
modesty in confrontation with each other."
