Description

I bake bread for my family every Friday, in honor of the coming Shabbat. The bread is enriched with oil and eggs and has a soft inner texture with a crunchy crust. After the mixing of the dough and the rising time, I divide the dough into pieces and roll long sausage shapes which are then braided into shape and washed with egg. I add a sugary topping with poppy and sesame seeds before baking. But before all this, there’s another step. I take a small piece of dough, separate it from the main bowl of dough and make a blessing on it. I bless the dough, and then I silently ask for blessings for my family, my community, my people. I ask that the hostages return dancing, that the soldiers return to their families, that the displaced people from the north and south return to their homes. I ask for the war to end and peace for all people everywhere. It's a lot to put on a small piece of dough! None of this is new. Jewish women have been ‘taking challah’ and attaching blessings to it forever. Since the war started, WhatsApp groups have opened up with women all over the world ‘taking challah’ and saying amen to each other's blessings. There’s a very special energy of women, each standing alone in their kitchens, but together in their intentions, preparing Shabbat bread for their families, saying blessings, asking for spiritual help for hostages, for soldiers and for peace for our nation. Bread is the stable, staple food. It couldn’t be more of a physical symbol, for material wealth, body health and sustenance. And here, in our kitchens, we have a spiritual blessing attached to this physical bread, the challah. It’s a point of connection of this world with a higher world. I started to keep the baking paper that the challah was baked on. There remained a hint of the outline of the bread that was removed from the paper. I treated the paper and began drawing mindlessly over the existing marks made by the bread. I needed to do this mindlessly, it was all too much. I think you know what I mean. The painting, the water colours, the very process of pencil in hand moving and making was very healing for me. I kept a diary during the war of my everyday life. You can appreciate the connection of the constant arrival of Shabbat every week and the regular, ordinary preparation of making bread in my kitchen so we might eat. The work juxtaposes the ‘slippage’ between the steady beat of life and the craziness of living through this war.
