"I believe that art heals by placing us in alignment with the great creative force of the universe. Art in all forms is the life affirming YES!!” - Gina Rose Halpern
Gina Rose is a spiritual teacher and leader in the practice of dedicating her art to elevating the human spirit. She has expressed her unique creative genius through painting, songwriting and clowning. Her paintings are inspired by the healing power of the natural world we all share, and are focused on the fragile condition of our planet and the balance and the cultural, ecological, and faith traditions of our Earth. Central themes of her art focus on the Kabbalistic concept of the shattering of the sacred vessels of light at the beginning of creation, and our role as humans to repair and restore the vessels- to heal the world- Tikkun Olam (from the Hebrew). The creative spiritual practice of Tikkun Olam is centered on compassion, forgiveness, and kindness for ourselves, our communities, and for those we may struggle with, personally and ideologically.
