"Hitbodedut" / התבודדות
The next drawing is called
"Hitbodedut" I do not know how to call it in English but it can be explained easily.
This is a situation in which a Jew goes to a quiet place, alone.
And speaks to God, in certain sects in Judaism such as "Breslav"
they ask you to speak to God as if he were your father and to speak to God in simple terms.
In the painting, everything looks like dark and black,
The earth (we) unite with the sky(God) and therefore the puddle on the floor is piece from the sky.(cut)
The person looking down sees the hope in heaven, he believes that God will help him, but he is still depressed.
This is a very important element in Judaism
Even when everything seems dark, we must never give up.
Even depression can turn everything black.
