ABOUT

The Peep Testament is a Peeps-eye journey through the TaNaKh--Hebrew Scriptures. Contemporary Midrash has never been sweeter.

My name is Nina Mandel and I first became interested in Peep-Art when I saw the contest the Washington Post used to run. My one and only submission was a biblical story, illustrated by Peeps. As a rabbi, it seemed like the only choice. I didn't win, but did form the idea of doing a Peep Testament. Someday. Some 12 years later, along comes the Covid-19 lockdowns of 2020 and it seemed like a good time to finally start the project. The rabbi work takes up a lot of energy, so the Peeps suffer, but I will keep adding to it. Until then, I hope you enjoy these depictions and are inspired to create your own, in whatever medium you choose.
