The Hope, Bronze sculpture in Carmiel, Israel
The Hope is a bronze sculpture depicting a woman lifting her child toward the sky to symbolize a new beginning. It stands in Carmiel's Holocaust Memorial Park as part of a larger series of related artworks.
Artist Nicky Imber, who escaped a concentration camp, initiated this sculpture after establishing himself in Israel. The work emerged as part of a broader memorial project focused on survival and hope following the war.
The sculpture belongs to a memorial park series called From Holocaust to Resurrection, exploring themes of hope and renewal. Its title resonates with meanings central to Israeli identity and survival.
The sculpture sits outdoors and is accessible through public pathways without special arrangements needed. Visitors can view it anytime during daylight, as it stands in an open memorial park accessible to all.
A team of six craftspeople spent five months creating the work, moving it through stages from cement to the final bronze casting. This lengthy process reveals the manual precision and time investment required for this memorial piece.
