The late Jerusalem artist Yehudit Shadur is renowned for reviving the centuries-long Jewish papercutting tradition of creating devotional compositions with time honored Jewish symbols. Her daughter, tapestry artist Tamar Shadur talks about her mother's work within this tradition and how her mother contributed her own iconography to this rich folk art.
