Book of Captured Memories

$145.00

Wire mesh dipped in flax pulp signifies a book cage where memories are “held” or there are constraints to prevent expression or escape.

Each tea bag holds a scroll with a memory. The tag gives a clue or identifies what is inside. The owner of the book could sit and carefully remove a tea bag from the cup and read the scroll.

The teacup is covered with white Melook Thai Lace Paper and my own handmade blue paper.

The different categories are Animals, Anais Nin, Anne Frank, Birds, Broken Heart, Henri Matisse, Native American Activist, Talk to Me, and Treasure Map. Exact quotes all available upon requests. SIZE IS 8” X 7” X 2”

This piece was created a number of years ago when I lived in Boston. Photos of this piece were featured in the workshop schedule for the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
