Description:
This was my entry for a themed contest with the theme "graffiti"
Title : Mezuzah
This might be stretching the theme a bit far
This is a design for a Mezuzah Case
Traditional Jews mount a Mezuzah on the door frame of
their home this is a small piece of parchment inscribed
with the Hebrew verses (Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21)
which contain the commandment to
"inscribe these words on the doorposts of your house" (Deut 6:9).
(mezuzah is actually the hebrew word for doorpost)
A Mezuzah Case is the decorative case used to hold and
mount the rolled parchment
