Throughout history, lupins have been associated with the wolf, symbolizing bravery, strength, and independence. The "Hill of Lupins", located in the Ella Valley in Israel, transforms into a vibrant blue landscape each spring. This valley is historically significant as the site where the ancient Israelites faced the Philistines in battle, and where David defeated Goliath.
After the tragic events of October 7th, 2023, Dvora created this painting because of the associations of the lupin flower which echo the bravery and inner strength of the people of Israel as they confront the challenges they face.
She has expressed her heartfelt hope for a better future with these striking flowers which form patterns of "Stars of David" across the canvas, symbolizing the unity of the people of Israel.
Dvora has aesthetically combined photographic imagery with hand-painted elements, creating a unique piece of art, a striking and meaningful artwork for any home.
