My Golem is a multi-faceted art project created by Los Angeles-based visual artist Julie Weitz. The project centers on her embodiment and portrayal of a futuristic folkloric humanoid, named My Golem. The character was created in 2017 for a series of Instagram videos that responded to rising antisemitism; since that time, the project evolved through a series of commissioned works. In partnership with curators, galleries, critics, rabbis, Jewish scholars and religious congregations, My Golem has grown to include live performance, film and video content, and collaborative educational initiatives. Though each new initiative is distinct from the last, what has remained consistent is Weitz and her Golem’s confrontation of contemporary cultural issues, through the fantastical lens of a Jewish mythological figure.
