Greeting the Light, painting by Golda Koosh from the Light of Jerusalem series — *Greeting the Light*, 120×90 cm – 47×35 in

The works

13 works

Hag Shavuot Sameah
120×80 cm – 47×32 in This is a memory of the city, of light, stone, silence, and the breathing of Jerusalem. It is a path woven from memory and light, through which the viewer moves together with the motion of leaves, the play of shadows, and the quiet conversations of people within the painting. The Jerusalem in this work cannot be found on a map. It is assembled from sensations: evening light, the coolness of stone, descending streets, and human presence within the ancient city. It is an image of returning home. View artwork
Sukkot Morning
80×60 cm – 32×24 in On a quiet Sukkot morning, a single figure carrying the lulav walks through the Old City. Light fills the ancient passage, transforming an ordinary moment into one of peace and quiet anticipation. View artwork
Growing Up in This Light
75×75 cm – 30×30 in Children grow in the light of a city where all of Jerusalem is their home. Many spend their entire lives searching for this home. A holy city where light becomes part of everyday life. View artwork
Jerusalem at Dawn
100×150 cm – 39×59 in Before the city fills with voices, the first light softens its ancient stones. The familiar landscape appears suspended between night and day, where silence becomes as tangible as light itself. In this moment, Jerusalem is experienced as a quiet presence. View artwork
Mount Moriah
100×120 cm – 39×47 in Mount Moriah is the place where a ram was sacrificed instead of Isaac. On Rosh Hashanah, the sound of the shofar recalls the ram’s horn and the Akedah , sacrifice, mercy, and the possibility of a new beginning. And the shofar sounds again over Jerusalem, two voices of one call. View artwork
The Inscription
120×90 cm – 47×35 in On Yom Kippur, it is believed that the inscription in the Book of Life is sealed. What has been written is not for us to know. All that remains is to keep walking. View artwork
Greeting the Light
120×90 cm – 47×35 in Every morning, the city is born anew from light. Jerusalem's golden radiance touches the earth and the people walking toward it, welcoming the light. Prayer becomes a way of seeing, and the road becomes a place where everyday life and sacred presence meet. The light of Jerusalem emerges the moment when a person encounters the city. View artwork
Moadim leSimha
100×120 cm – 39×47 in In different homes, on different streets, and in different communities, people celebrate it in their own way, but the light and joy of the holiday unite them. Any other Jewish family could be in place of this one. We may be very different, but we are one people, and we rejoice together. View artwork
Towards the Light
100×150 cm – 39×59 in At the Western Wall, figures move through a cool, silvery space toward a field of light. The architecture dissolves into atmosphere, while the people remain small and fragile within the vastness of the city. The work is about presence, distance, and the human movement toward light. View artwork
Light Through the Ages
120×100 cm – 47×39 in In the ancient city of Jerusalem, Hanukkah candles are lit. Their light unites generations, connecting the past and the present. People and the walls of the city emerge from the darkness. The light of Hanukkah becomes a symbol of the continuity of Jewish tradition, spiritual resilience, and the hope that the Jewish people have carried through the ages. View artwork
One Torah, One People
100×150 cm – 39×59 in In the joyful dance of Simchat Torah, the diverse traditions of the Jewish people come together. Ashkenazi Torah scrolls and Sephardic Torahs in silver cases become part of one shared movement. View artwork
Shabbat in Yemin Moshe
120×100 cm – 47×39 in Evening falls over Jerusalem. A father and son return home from the synagogue, where Shabbat candles are already glowing and the family is gathering around the festive table. The warm light illuminates the ancient stone walls, connecting generations and transforming an ordinary evening into a sacred time, a time of peace, family warmth, and the holiness of Shabbat. View artwork
Under the Jerusalem Sky
120×100 cm – 47×39 in Beneath the wedding chuppah, among the ancient walls of Jerusalem, a new family is born. Music fills the air, children dance, and loved ones share in the joy of the newlyweds. View artwork
