Star of David Diaspora sculpture ART

Photo of Star of David Diaspora sculpture is courtesy of Ken Kalman from Canyon, California. It was created in 2004

Size: 13 x 13 x 2.25 in.

Ken wrote to me:

The sculpture is made of aluminum sheet and covered with a map of the universe. The map is riveted onto the Star of David that I fabricated. The piece is a metaphor, that Jews are everywhere.

I wonder how would this sculpture look like after the return of the Jews to Zion…
