Standing Prayer 002

This painting captures an evening of prayer at the Western Wall.
Birds circle above, as if gently calling the gathered souls to lift their prayers for the people of Israel.

Jews from all arround the world, arrive and depart in a continuous flow.
The presence of prayer never ceases — only the faces change.
Like souls passing through a sacred moment, one stands, another leaves, and someone else quietly takes their place.

No schedule is announced, no order is given.
Yet each person arrives at the right time.
They replace one another naturally, almost unknowingly,
as if guided from above.

With small gestures, subtle movements, and unspoken understanding,
they become part of something far greater than themselves —
a living cycle of prayer that sustains, protects, and brings light into the world.
