"Each generation will praise Your works to the next, and of Your mighty deeds they will tell." (Psalm 145:4)

The letter "daled" is the fourth letter in the Hebrew alphabet, which begins the word "delet" for door, and "da'at" for knowledge. The shape of the letter reminds us of a doorpost with a horizontal top. We learn that everything comes from G-d, and we can "enter" His door to attain greater understanding and knowledge.

Daled's numerical value of four reminds us of our matriarchs: Sarah, Rivka, Leah, and Rachel. At Pesach, four questions are asked and four cups of wine are drunk.

"Chalom" in Hebrew means "Dreams," like that of Yakkov Aveinu (Jacob our Father) who dreamt of angels traveling up and down a ladder between heaven and earth. The gestural qualities of these paintings explore the dreamlike spiritual qualities of the Hebrew letters.
