Woman’s Spirit by Jacob Benaroch

Since time immemorial woman was kept in the shadow of man and society. She was at the center of life, and yet far from the light.

The Woman’s Spirit collection is a celebration of the strength, beauty, sensuality and power that is, and always was, within the female spirit. Using bold colours and expressive brush strokes, I wanted to create a pictorial expression of a mythical woman that evokes and displays her power, explores whether she is oppressed by society or the corporate elite, celebrates her womanhood, and allows her to express her true self. This woman at the center of the composition is peering at the world with a look that is mysterious and enigmatic—one eye in the shadows hiding access to her soul. Life is too precious to remain unexamined. This exhibit is one more candle shining a light on the spirit of woman.
