“Joyful Heart” Torah Ark
Dimensions: 450 cm x 410 cm high
Materials: Cherry, maple and wenge
This sculptural extravaganza is definitely one of Kimchi’s most substantial Torah arks. The ark, along with the Torah reading table, or Bimah, and podium, was commissioned for a Yeshiva high school in Memphis, Tennessee.
The donor’s dream was to transform the old building into an invigorating and spiritually uplifting study hall/sanctuary.
The metamorphosis has been making waves ever since.
