Tribute to Israeli women kidnapped on October 7th, 2023 —nurturers deeply connected to their kibbutz community and the love it fosters. One hostage, a witness to the violent death of her husband, was eventually returned to her country. The artist reflects on how the thought of light in her garden kept her afloat during her darkest days. With a strength that enables her to cultivate life in ways only women can, she tends to her garden—both literally and metaphorically—with unwavering dedication. This is a prayer that women’s strength will empower her and all others enduring unimaginable injustices to ultimately find a way to survive and thrive.
