Homages to ...










In trying to stay away from the literal meaning of chimera, I went to several mixed media blogs to salvage what I could from them in terms of relevant and interesting research. In doing so, I found all these various pictures of shrines made from different found objects and decorated with illustrations. The diverse range of materials and sizes (some of these 'shrines' are made from matchboxes believe it or not)relate directly to the brief because of the nature of their random construction.  I especially like the 'Man's Ruin' one because of the use of the tacky plastic dolls and dice, it has a real rockabilly feel.
