Paintings

Her paintings live inside her books

The images arose alongside the writing — meditations on each tribe's land and letter, made visible in colour. A selection will live here.

Harp

Instrumental harp, recorded quietly

Wordless music from the moshav — the same contemplative spirit as the paintings, in sound. Recordings will be gathered here.

A first recording will be added here soon.

Retreats

Custom healing retreats for women, on the moshav

A quiet home in the forested hills near Jerusalem, on Moshav Tarom — space to heal, to rest, and to begin a creative project of your own. Healthy food, unhurried days, and optional forest hikes to Kever Shimshon and to Kever Dan ben Yaakov. Retreats are shaped to each woman who comes; daily and weekly rates.

About

Nechama Sarah Gila Nadborny Burgeman

A Phi Beta Kappa graduate in cultural anthropology with a minor in art history, she settled in Israel decades ago and learned in Tzfat and Jerusalem. Her work joins scholarship, painting, poetry, and music into a single contemplative practice.

A chassida of the Nadvorna Rebbe zt"l and a student of Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, she attended the teachings of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach z"l and Rav Mordechai Sheinberger. She has learned Breslov, Chabad discourses, the Zohar, and the writings of the Ari z"l.

Today she lives and works on Moshav Tarom in the forested hills near Jerusalem, where she writes, paints, plays the harp, and welcomes women for retreats.
