Blooming Hope

Artist: Esther Encaoua
Medium: Plexiglass on aluminum, hand-painted
Dimensions: 90×60 cm
Edition: Unique original – comes with Certificate of Authenticity

This striking Pop Art piece by Esther Encaoua blends symbols of resilience, memory, and beauty. Painted by hand over plexiglass and metal, the artwork features a violin blooming with colorful flowers – a metaphor for life, art, and hope rising from struggle.

Surrounding the central motif are vivid Pop Art elements: comic-style bursts, peace doves, the words “We Will Dance Again,” the Hebrew word “Chai” (life), hearts, smiles, and references to Israel’s founding in 1948. At the bottom stands an Israeli soldier, grounding the composition in courage and sacrifice, while the flowers and music symbolize the nation’s unbreakable spirit.

More than a painting, this is a visual symphony – a declaration that even through pain and war, Israel chooses life, music, and hope.

This artwork is ready to hang and does not require framing.
