    THE VISION
    An artistic co-operation between two artists from Israel and India. The exhibition creates a connection between two ancient civilizations. These countries were of the first in the world to have women as prime-ministers. Yet both countries have a traditional role of women as mothers and housewives. If women of the Far East could join forces with women of the Middle-East, a change can be made and a better future can be achieved. Women can help each other and find creative solutions to their distress and agony. Women can empower each other and break the glass ceiling.
    This is a call for Women Empowerment in both societies and for strengthening the bond between the two countries.
    This exhibition wishes to demonstrate that empowering women is not just for women. Men and women should work together to bring this change to their culture.
     
    WHAT IS EXHIBITED ?
    The exhibition is a dining room, including a dining table, chairs, plates, cups, cutlery, table-cloths… all the tableware and furniture are covered with paintings and portraits of women. It is a kaleidoscope of west-east faces: There are portraits of women that broke the glass ceiling - the first woman pilot in Israeli airline, a diplomat preaching for peace with Israel, a Nobel Prize winner.
    There are also the five elements of the Indian culture (Ether, Air, Fire, water and earth), symbolizing the connection of man to the universe.
