I collages about my parents and how they got to this beautiful wedding box made out of mother of pearl. It is an Egyptian tradition to get this wedding box. I have always been very curious to open that box but I don’t know if it is that’s a good idea. Before making this collage I thought it was just a random box sitting on the table that my parents bought online or something like that, but now I know that my parents got it from their wedding and that it was made out of this beautiful material, mother of pearl. I now know the routes of how we actually got the box and why we have it and who it was for.
