Debra Sokolow: Designing Sacred Space
|
Mosaic Ark Wall and Eternal Light
for David Saperstein Middle School Beit Midrash
Designed by Debra Sokolow, the Director of Architectural Design in the Visual Arts

staff, and alumni had an opportunity to place glass pieces within the
design.
Sokolow’s goal was to create a space that provided young
students a comfortable and inspirational learning environment intended for

space filled with light and color.....

This "Digital Composition" by Carole Salak was one of the pieces adorning the Administrations Building at the Gardens of the World in the "911 Show" (commemorating the First Anniversary of September 11th).
It caught the interest of our own Frank Schillo and now has a place of honor at his and Marion's home.
Thank you Frank and Marion!
