Idea for Project 2

For my second project I want to make shadow box shrines for various common animals. On the glass of the shadow boxes I want to transfer prints of the creature so from a distance it just looks like an image in a frame. When closer, the viewer would be able to look through the image into the box. Inside the box will be a skull or a bit of bone or feathers from the animal as well as dried flowers and coins and other offerings, maybe a little prayer on a bit of parchment. Just by coming closer and actually looking at the animal will be an act of respect towards an often overlooked creature.
