The Curse of the Wandering Jew

This is our latest sculpture "The Curse of the Wandering Jew" casted in white concrete. It is on exhibition for the Association of Arts Pretoria's 75th Birthday celebration along with a selection of  really well curated artworks from various local artists. The exhibition is currently open until 20 August 2022.  

The Wandering Jew is an obscure biblical figure, shrouded in mystery. The legend speaks of a man that was damned to walk the Earth until the second coming for taunting Jesus while he bore the cross towards the crucifixion. 

It is said that he told Jesus to "Go faster" to which Jesus quietly replied "I go, but thou shalt wait till I come." 

Over time there have been rumours of encounters with such a man.
