With Art Objects, every day becomes a playful adventure as the artist beckons us to rediscover the joy in the simple and embrace the artful essence of life's little moments.
The Hoopoe, with its expressive crown of feathers and distinctive appearance, holds a special place in Gerstein's heart. As the national bird of Israel and the only species of its kind in the region, the Hoopoe symbolizes the unique and diverse beauty of the natural world. For Gerstein, birdwatching in Israel evokes images of the Hoopoe, a bird that is both striking and unforgettable in its presence. David Gerstein draws inspiration from the beauty and symbolism of butterflies. For Gerstein, butterflies symbolize freedom, transformation, and new beginnings, much like the experience of opening a window and embracing the world beyond, as seen in Butterflies Window. He has painted hundreds, if not thousands, of butterflies throughout his life, each one representing a unique story, emotion, or moment in time, and often inspired by particular people, such as Butterfly-Hava. Gerstein's Hamsa With Butterflies is not just a beautiful creation; it is also a powerful symbol of hope and protection. "Of all the things butterflies represent to me and others, the most significant meaning is that they, like me, cannot be boxed in. There is no limitation on where the butterfly can fly or what colors they can be. Like in my art, there is no boundary on how many I can paint and what stories they can tell," Gerstein says about Butterfly Cube.
As a child, Gerstein's imagination was vivid, transporting him to a world of colorful creation where he felt suspended between reality and whimsy. Cycling through nature, he would observe the beauty of the natural world, envisioning the butterflies multiplying and dancing around him. This euphoric world of his imagination is the reality he strives to capture in Ride in Euphoria. When painting cyclists in motion, Gerstein explores rhythms and movements in a unique and enjoyable manner, noting how colors and shapes blend and repeat themselves as they move swiftly. This dynamic approach to painting adds a sense of movement and energy to his fruit bowl. Gerstein finds inspiration in the beauty and majesty of birds. Since his childhood, he has been captivated by the natural world, spending countless hours immersed in nature's splendor. For Gerstein, nature is a source of endless fascination and inspiration, a place where time seems to stand still, and every moment is filled with wonder. Losing track of time in nature inspired him to create his clock, aptly titled Nature Time.
