The wheel of knowledge

The sculpture project “Wheel of knowledge” had his inspiration for the location for the sculpture, the city of Rishon LeZion. The major subject of the sculpture is the Hebrew alphabet that was taught for the first time in school in Israel in the city Rishon LeZion and revival of the Hebrew language back in 1888. The circle or the wheel are combined symbolically with the Hebrew alphabet because the culture that comes through knowing your origins, your language its something sacred and eternal. The movement of the wheel or the circle is eternal so it's the same with the language. That is the knowledge of our ancestors we know and give to the future generations. All cultures and civilizations around the world are known nowadays because of there written artifacts, so that is sure to prove that the language is a wheel that brings our culture into the unknown future.
