from Haim Sherrf’s “Merkava” digital art

Merkava, also known as Celestial Chariots, is an expression used in the ancient scripture of Kabbalah. The Merkava is an angel composed of four entities: the man, the bull, the lion and the eagle. These entities are responsible for the four ways in which the spiritual world interacts with the physical world. As water is a source of life, Kabbalah compares water to holy scripture, the five books of Moses.

In my design, I try to connect the idea of the imagery of the Merkava depicted on the paddleboard with the path it follows on the water. The word Merkava contains the word "Mer", which means sea in French, creating an additional connection.

I grew up on the beaches of the Mediterranean Sea in the city of Haifa, Israel, where I surfed daily and built my own surfboards, illustrating them with my airbrush creations. I am proud to be part of this wonderful Wavellon project.

Enjoy the board and dive into the deepest mysteries of life above the blue oceans!

about the artist: Haim Sherrf

An artist at heart since his childhood in Israel, Sherrf has been painting seriously since age 22 when he visited renowned artist Salvador Dali. Dali encouraged him to paint full time and Sherrf hasn't looked back since. He considers the artist to be a vessel, "an intermediary." He channels his inspiration, and through his work, inspires others. For Wavellon, Sherrf offers a meticulously crafted artwork inspired by the mystic of the Celestial Chariots.
