This is a set of four cubes that have been collaged with pieces of ephemera and prints of some incredible 1920s photographs of women exercising on a beach. I collect antique photographs and these unusual images are amongst my favourites. 
 
I used a colour palette of neutral shades and very light blue to reflect the seaside setting. They have been coated with encaustic wax which gives a beautiful patina and protects the cubes. The wax goes slightly dull over time but can simply be buffed with a soft cloth to restore the shine. Each cube is 3cm by 3cm.
 
These look beautiful set on a shelf or coffee table - a beautiful way to display old images and papers.
 
The cubes will be carefully packaged and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity to show that they were handmade by me. Whilst every cube is unique, I can make commissioned cubes of similar designs if these are sold out.
