In contrast to the familiar version, in which God keeps Adam at hands length, here the act of creation and touch are inextricably linked. Scholars have discovered that the contours of the divine hand correspond precisely with the female internal sexual anatomy, and that the human finger is pressing the g-spot. A personal journal from the time recounts covert premarital rites that took place in the chapel, with spiritual guides using this image to instruct young brides and grooms in the art of love making. It is no secret that Michelangelo’s relationship with the Catholic Church was strained. The Pope likely demanded that Michelangelo change the image to portray the narrative in the second chapter of Genesis in which Woman is created from the ribs of Man; however, this original work was retrieved and preserved by a group of acolytes who, like the painter himself, worshipped the God of whom it is written, "Male and Female He created Them" (Genesis 1:27). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1614881196957-NMBDUA83CMUZWR6OHIOL/Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Arnolfini.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1614881923406-ZP1TXFUTW2QMMNG28J1G/Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Greek+Vase.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621343332407-4UKP6RQW99HM5ALBOHMG/tirtzahbassel_menstruating+martyr.jpg Work Miracle of the Menstruating Martyr, 26”x28”, gouache on paper. This depiction of the miracle of the menstruating martyr is of Flemish origin. The panels are noted for their technical skill, visceral impact and for possessing a physicality and directness unusual for Netherlandish art of the time. The martyr’s blood is visible on her hands, feet and brow, as well as the miraculous post-crucifixion menstrual blood trickling down her leg. The lily and skull on the ground highlight the symbolic cyclicality of life and death. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/04ecb14d-926f-424a-958d-48faff014b3f/La+Menarquia.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1627149414568-MHYOWJ9DEOW2THX4QMC8/tirtzah+bassel_goya.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/4a8dc9c9-0ef2-4589-a549-0b57ddacb6fc/tirtzah+bassel+7.Portrait+of+Pope+Innocent.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/f3ec9b7e-16ef-451b-b1cd-3f1af9130f11/Adult+Playhouse+of+Avignon.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1614882825095-A6QVM1XREY6N8EQ7APRC/Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Milky+Way.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621346451035-TIBFKGMQAHMSN6V36EDP/IMG_6794.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1614881948576-FRBRIMI4WV1G84QBXXX0/Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Anatomy+Lesson+.jpg Work . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/123572ae-a582-4081-a833-250514a09cb1/6_Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Entrained.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1614881159002-NDYUISEWUY02EH8QR53G/Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Origin+of+the+World.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/acd034e4-7bf3-44be-901c-7d85ccd7f5f2/22_Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Nativity.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/6039ace5-3de4-4a40-98bc-676c7e9fde35/19_Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Origin+Story+%28Blue%29.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/0d82e71d-0d0d-4303-921f-1c2991d4b9d1/9_Tirtzah+Bassel_CanonInDrag_Homo+Lunae.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621347371452-ZYBAXFVX1EYTKOKFGTNC/tirtzahbassel_botticelli.jpg Work - Make it stand out The Birth of Venus Barbata, 42”x32”, gouache on paper, 2020 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621347025470-DRYTFMHZ0O0QA0NX4VSE/tirtzahbassel_quilters.jpg Work - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621347475103-17N2KFXBFAX63AXE9CIS/tirtzahbassel_ironing+man.jpg Work - Make it stand out Ironing Man (after Pablo Picasso), 6”x10”, gouache on paper, 2021 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52865183e4b0fb22d0b77291/1621347422479-SI3H941QRO9N8VT4XGSP/tirtzahbassel_pollock.jpg Work - Make it stand out The artist working in her Long Island studio (1948), gouache on paper, 12”x18”, 2020 The photograph captures the artist’s now iconic crouching painting position, reminiscent of a traditional birthing pose.
