[Shimot/Shin], 1997
Scope and Contents
This digital calligraphic work was made from letters traced by Dautricourt in pen and ink and then realized in a computer using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. It was printed on Bristol paper with a laser printer. The text was derived from the book Shamot, from the Torah, the Hebrew Bible, chapters 31, 32 and 35. A large Hebrew bown letter 'shin' formed the background for the Biblical texts printed in red and white. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
