  • Artist Biography:  I’m a Boston native, having grown up in Canton and Needham. I now live in Roslindale, MA.   I got a degree from Barnard College in environmental studies and urban planning, with a minor in dance, and I was ordained at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College in 1995.  After many years of chaplaincy training, I was board certified in chaplaincy in Aug 2019. I now work as a chaplain for Hebrew Senior Life.  I am a jewelry designer, potter, composer, mobile-maker and an organic gardener.  I am passionate also about interfaith dialogue, seeking connection through the richness of difference. I’ve been a member of TBZ since 2002. I am proud to say that Rav Claudia owns one of my colorful necklaces!

  • Artist Statement (optional): I love the play of color and shape, texture and balance in the innovative work of Mondrian, Kandinsky, Arp, Moore and Calder, among many others.  I tend to want to take in art in a tactile way, so my own work — in pottery, jewelry, mobile-making, garden design — involves more than just the visual.  In striving for grace and balance, I’m often looking at contrast and connection, fluidity and stillness. My works in this show are among many I have made, and all are for sale.

  • Title of Artwork:  Vintage resin beaded necklace
  • Medium: Vintage resin beads, gold-filled (gold over sterling) findings
  • Dimensions: 18” with a 3” extender chain
  • This artwork is for sale       
  • Description: I like wearable art, and when I went looking for “statement necklaces,” I found most too heavy to wear.  I discovered vintage resin beads from the 60’s and 70’s and found that the beads are substantial but not burdensome in weight, and the combinations of colors bring delight.
