Flinging Prayer

This interactive piece is part of the Flinging Prayer series inspired by Berachot 31b where we learn that “Channah cast words to G-d on high." 

Created with the help of those attending A Letter Unread: Drisha Arts Fellows Present a Year of Learning, this piece captures their deepest desires and prayers. Each participant wrote his/her prayer on a fabric carrier and flung it at the final piece with the use of a small catapult. Throughout the program, the piece took shape as our individual prayers were joined to create a collaborative fiber artwork. 

Did you miss the chance to add your prayers to the piece? You'll have one more opportunity 7:00pm on July 21 at the opening of Text and Texture: Midrash Through Making at the Park Avenue Synagogue.
