Apollo Mezuzah by Laura Cowan

The windows on the Apollo spacecraft inspired the abstract Shin featured on this mezuzah, designed by Israeli artist Laura Cowan. Made in Israel. Scroll sold separately.

 

Cowan's design is inspired by the moon landing and space race of the 1960s, a subject she has always found fascinating. She enjoys engaging the juxtaposition of futuristic style with contemporary history in her art, which can be seen in her work, expanding from mezuzahs to Seder plates. In May 2008, her Apollo mezuzah and her Shuttle mezuzah were given clearance by NASA to launch with Expedition 17.
