Poetry in a Box


Using lines of poetry as inspiration, I created a series of miniature scenes in the small intimate space of a used matchbox. Playing in the tradition of shadow box, I used drawings, collage and painting to transform the miniature box into small treasure that illustrates lines of Poetry from Rumi to Emily Dickson.
