Miracle, Spice art installation by amandamargaretha

Title: Miracle
Year: 2019
Medium: Chilli powder, Chilli peppers, Tumeric, Parsley, Course and fine pepper, Cinnamon sticks, Star Anise seed.
Synopsis: The installation reflects the festive time of Hanukkah. According to the Talmud,  Jews who took part in the rededication of the Second Temple witnessed a miracle. Even though there was only enough untainted olive oil to keep the menorah’s candles burning for a single day, the flames continued flickering for eight nights, leaving them time to find a fresh supply.
