DESCRIPTION:An evening of Jewish liturgy\, art and poetry\, exploring the w
 ays ancient texts find new expression through contemporary creative practic
 e.\nJoin us for a cozy salon where Jewish prayer and literature come alive 
 through collage and poetry.\nEncounter ten original collaborative collage w
 orks by artists Tunni Kraus and Becky Litwin\, each offering a visual inter
 pretation of passages from Kabbalat Shabbat. Alongside our ancient texts\, 
 hear poet Tali Lavi draw on the rich world of Jewish literature\, touching 
 our hearts with her evocative words.\nRabbanit Ellyse Borghi will guide us 
 through the texts that inspire the evening’s creative works\, opening up 
 new ways for us each to interpret these words and ideas.\nThere’ll be tim
 e to linger with the texts and the art\, meet their makers\, sip a glass of
  wine\, and enjoy the company.\n \nAbout the artists:\nBecky Litwin is an 
 artist and poet on the hunt for the magic in the mundane. She draws inspi
 ration from the small beauties of this world — birds\, blobs and bugs ali
 ke. \nTunni Kraus is a contemporary Melbourne-based visual artist whose ex
 hibition profile spans from major international institutions to local artis
 t-run spaces. Working across diverse mediums\, his conceptual studio practi
 ce centres on immersive\, long-term research projects.\nTali Lavi is a writ
 er\, poet\, critic and public interviewer. Her essays and reviews have app

 ork explores ideas of memory and the presence of absence whilst employing r
 eligious symbolism and language.
