Rabbi Lazar’s Menorah reminds us of part of the story of the people that lived in Crown Heights. His secret Mitzvah was revealed after he passed on, when the people realized that all the money that he was asking for was only for the purpose of tzedaka (charity). When I met him he didn’t have even a pair of shoes that match for himself. In my art work I try to reveal the 'Pintele Yid' in our time.
