Particularly moving is the 3rd piece. I've attached the artist's statement about it....Incredible!

"I made this piece in the middle of the second Intifada when horrible things were happening outside my doorstep. The piece refers to what every mother wanted to wrap her child in to protect them from the random violence. Amulets, prayers, prayer scrolls, incantations and Kabbalistic charts are all combined in a small child's dress which refers in shape and size to those worn by Afghan children." (Andi Arnovitz)
