Eternal Oppositional Whole--Machine-etched found mirror
Eternal Oppositional Whole–Machine-etched found mirror

This reminds me of the mirror from "Snow White" (and the mirror of Eristed from 'Harry Potter'). The thing I like about this is that everyone has a different idea of 'Love' dependign on their views and intrests. The mirror is a decrative mirror, this could represent the meanings of love is ancient. The words "Illustrations of Love is everywhere" reminds me of the quote "Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you." — Marsha Norman : ) it reminds me that we all have different ways of looking at the same thing.

Invisible--Hand-embossed paper

The thing I like about her work is the idea behind it, to me taken from childhood stories or books. The "invisible" page reminds me of "Harry Potter" because of the "invisible" reminds me of the invisible ink that is used in 'Tom Riddles' diary and the map. The writting is not noticable at first glance but when you get close you relise what it is. This idea is interesting because when we are focused on "the bigger picture" we forget what is close to our face. It reminds me to take time to "smell the roses".
