Temple Windows
$200.00
In 2004 I was commissioned to design three 6.5 ft. by 2.5 ft. stained glass windows for the Cantor Park Memorial Chapel, which was being built inside of Kingston’s Temple Emanuel. I was instructed that the subjects of the windows were “Music”, “Justice”, and “Light”, that I should incorporate the Hebrew words for these subjects, and not use the color red. Also the windows should relate to each other. Finding biblical quotations appropriate to these images helped me figure out what images to create. I picked out hand blown glass which would have had a unique luminosity if real daylight were allowed to flow through them. But these windows were not on exterior walls, so had to be installed in light boxes, whose light diffusers (needed to mask the light bulbs) obscured this special luminosity. As a result they look very much as they are pictured here. They were installed in 2005.
