HAWAIIAN ISLAND PRINTS
For over two thousand years husbands
have given their wives marriage contracts which spoke of their love and
commitment to each other. In the Middle Ages, these documents called Ketubot
were elaborately illuminated. They still are, but with a special difference.
Artist, Shayna Baecker Magid, has created a version of the marriage contract
using visual elements from her own Hawaiian roots. Its poetic text is based on
ancient Hawaiian oral tradition; the Biblical "Song of Songs"; and a modern
Hawaiian wedding ceremony.
