No more me. How does art address issues concerning the individual in nature, society and art? This is a reliquary for old sculptures. From the outside the piece looks like a shed. The interior contains sculptures. Reliquaries are used to preserve. The sculptures and this reliquary have been burned to ashes and no longer exist.
