#38 Jacquie’s cross

This piece was inspired by the foreign currency and traveler’s checks that a friend at work found.  Once we determined that it was outdated and useless, it became collage material.  Here it is used to form the cross.  The yellow transparent film over the silver paper creates the impression of hammered metal.   The playful border is a welcome relief from the formality of the interior structure.
