Splitting the Sea – Vertical Passage

A path rising between towering depths—
where movement is guided through height and light.

Splitting the Sea – Vertical Passage captures a monumental dimension of the crossing, where the scale of the moment becomes almost architectural. Created in Jerusalem, the work reflects the experience of moving through vastness—where the surrounding forces are immense, yet a clear direction emerges within them.

Textured vertical planes of blue, white, and muted gold extend upward, forming a sense of height that feels both powerful and immersive. The sea is not only parted, but elevated—its walls rising like structures that define the space of passage.

At the center, a collective presence advances along a narrowing path, suggested through layered strokes and luminous accents. The figures appear small in scale, yet unified in movement, emphasizing the relationship between human presence and the magnitude of the environment.

Light descends from above, not as a sudden break, but as a steady source of guidance within the vertical expanse.

As a one-of-a-kind original, this piece introduces a strong sense of scale and depth into a space. It often becomes a commanding focal point—bringing structure, movement, and quiet intensity into a refined interior.
