Reliquaries speak of miraculous belief; the physical interpretations of a person, place or event. In my current work, I am integrating the Christian tradition of relics with my own personal narratives, drawing a fine line between that which defines beauty, obsession and honor. The reliquaries integrate found and precious objects, encapsulating the sustained life of memory in disposable objects.
