Acrylic and Hostage Poster on Canvas, with Rope, 2025
“Tethered” is an amulet-like artwork featuring a hostage poster of Ariel Cunio, kidnapped from Israel on October 7, 2023, and still captive, framed within a hamsa symbol. The hamsa, traditionally protective, here encases the evil of captivity, underscored by a heavy rope suggesting suspension and entrapment. This piece serves as a visual vigil, blending amulet, protest, and prayer for Ariel and all remaining hostages.
