THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX

This object is a homage to "Rodin" (The Thinker).

This ceramic lady is thinking about saving the environment. She is sitting on an enameled globe (little enamel box) and has the Global Environment Outlook report at her feet.
In the roof of her "Think Box'  a yellow crystal sun is still shining on her for as long as the global warming did not take that sun away.

The wooden frame can slice into the big enameled box.

The enamel panels on the box show you how the world will look like without the sun. Dark, trees with no leaves.

This antique 'shaving box' (with soap, brush and aluin stone in it) has a mirror on the inside of the cover.

The top panel is made from copper with chasing and repousse technique and has a enamel layer on top.The image is a part of the commercial for shaving soap in the late '40's by "De Vergulde Hand".

I made this box as a memorial to my grand dad who was the inventer of the liquid shaving soap in the Netherlands in the early '30's.
