To make a panoramic view to Purim celebration. Looks fantastic!
I weared a costume so I was granted by 2 special cookies "Haman`s ears". Great taste! It was an amazing dish from dough
in triangle shape with reach stuffing of poppy, sweet and black. I perfectly remembered, my GrandMa cooked it, just in another shape. It was so toughtful. Although it was never named as traditional dish "Haman`s ears", it was exectly the same. I feel the link between generation, which are in our genetics, honorable chain to those who surviver and save cultire even in darkest times, in hunger, keep it for kids to make them connected with the best of the best from past generations. I remember it so clear right now, when I am writing the post, so keep blogging, keep revice your own experience to discover the roots which are energy source for everyone. That`s so important. I never feel it as clear as now, remembering what my grandMa did, and what was yesterday.
I made that picture of "Haman`s years" right on the table with was the theater of historical event. Literary, "Haman`s ears", and me in costume was presented in presense of Haman himselfe as well as Queen Esther and others.
As the celebration was situated in the Jewish museum, I took several rounds to refresh my memory about it. The museum is very modern, interactive, with many touch screens. One of the most exciting moment was Thora scroll. It seemed to be scanned from the original, ancient scrioll. You can touch the menue to brows it.
AS in real sinagogue, it needs to use a special stick in hand shape, it names "yad" to stop the screen scrolling and to highlight the text you want to read. It has translations to several languages.
Although the most part of the Jewish history is full of tears and struggle, the selebration of Purim itself was joyful.
You can see a DJ with funny bead like captain Jack Sparrow:
Better view:
I also founded a remarcable person represented Albert Einstein, with an animal scull full of written Physical formulas like E=mc2. He had his masquerade costume with Chinese mustashes and bead so it was so funny and so significant, so I asked him to make a picture:
This is the view from upstears to the scene where people was provided with some masquerade costumes: masks, beads and mustashes, turbans, peacock`s feathers, jewelry, silk scarfs. Two designers helped people to wear it. I was mesmerised woth gentle guestures of their hands. People was changing while they felt how careful hands weared them. It was so amazing beauty:
So amazing, and so important to men, wemen, kids to have such possibility to touch rich beauty of centuries, to overcome for one everning casuality and common. That was the first time I realized how it is difficult for people who have no artist`s abilities, to make a step out of common reality… and in was so beautiful. Men in turbans, weman and kids in silk, with care and safe:
I made some videos for my future films about it. And, in addition, I was so amazed of the scene, so literary saw my future painting about it. I will make it as I have everything documented so catched the moment.
Among silk scarfs for head wear it was a lot of my favorite colors: marine and royal blue. So I wasn`t able to resist to wear it right above my own red-n-gold costume:
... and I felt it is right for it.
So I decided to include marine or blue colors whatever I wear, at least as a detail. I made this turban by myself, because it was difficult to reconstruct the engeneering shape of jewelries and hairdressing I already had. So I made my turban right around it and felt very good
I was at Purim the first time in my life. I started from the beginning 4 PM and was till the end 10 PM trying to catch every moment and every detail. It was a cold everning with rain and at the end I founded myself hungry. Then I went to the small Bento&Wok cafe and enjoy the dish from my another ankestors, a simple Asian food noodles and vegetables, and I said: the enerning was really good, ant then came home to make my posts and had my rest.
The next day I took my Chinese GoHua painting classes, GunBi style, so you can see, the whole world could be reflected in eyes of a person who is open for treasures of cultire, treasures of life. What could be better then it?
Just a smile
