Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky
was born in 1970 in Korosten,
USSR, and grew up in Leningrad (now St.Petersburg) Russia. He received
his artistic education at the Architecture
department of The Leningrad Institute of Civil Engineering.
Mr. Borshevsky became a professional
Torah scribe and an Expert of Jewish Scribal Arts at Jerusalemite
Yeshivah Shevut Ami Rabbinical College.
Complying with the Halachic law, he creatively extends the Jewish
ceremonial art tradition. Mr. Borshevsky has devoted himself to
creating original parchment manuscripts on the basis of sacred Hebrew
Scriptures from the 3,300-year-old immense spiritual heirloom of
the Jewish people.
Avraham H. Borshevsky’s illuminated manuscripts have been displayed
at exhibitions in Israel, USA, Russia, Slovakia and India.
In 2004, Mr. Borshevsky wrote the unique Mezuzah
parchment, which was recognized as a masterpiece of Hebrew sacred
calligraphy. Due to its giant dimensions, this kosher Mezuzah was
documented
by the Guinness World Records™.
Avraham H. Borshevsky permanently lives and works in Jerusalem.
He makes a living as a freelance Hebrew scribe and Judaica artist.
The master’s works have made prestigious custom-designed gifts and
are located in museums and private collections in 40 countries around
the world.
