An interview with Canadian artist Tobaron Waxman is presented. When asked about the role of masculinity in his work “Amidah,” Waxman explains that “Amidah” is from a period of his life where he lived in a gender-segregated environment to study Judaism and references a silent prayer recited three times a day for which ten men are present. Waxman goes on to discuss his work “Fear of Bearded Planet” and the stereotype of a Jewish or Arab man.
