Description In a sheltered interior niche on the left of the box (unseen from a distance), I thought to create the semblance of a hidden garden (the one that Alice sought to enter, but which was always just outside of her reach).   With that in mind, I fashioned a bouquet of abstracted "flowers", in the same earthy tones as the curio shelf, to stand as a transition from one realm to another. The bouquet was made from vintage buttons that I gleaned from my grandmother's old button jar.

I love each and every detail. I dreamed to read Alice to my son next to your assemblage

Thank you, Canan. I loved the idea of being able to explore and discover hidden places, and that was my goal.  But it doesn't make it easy to present photographically. I hope you were able to get the feeling of exploration...of moving from one realm to another.

I am sure, photos can't give the magical mood of it but I can feel it. Very beautiful!
