Overview
Throughout history, human beings have kept physical reminders and mementos of loved ones, popular icons, and significant life events. Shrines and shadow boxes-three dimensional collages set into a box or housing-have become popular ways of collecting and displaying these meaningful objects as an artistic assemblage.This special book pays tribute to our very human need to connect emotionally with the people and occasions that have made us who we are-in a way that enables readers to explore their personal history through their artistic work. Illustrated with beautiful full-color examples, it offers ideas for 32 shrines and shadow boxes with themes ranging from personal expression to memory keeping to historical tributes and celebrations-as well as an awe-inspiring gallery of 10 more professionally designed works.
By creating projects both physically beautiful and spiritually moving, readers from any walk of life can capture and honor their memories, hopes, and dreams in a personal and meaningful way.
