Assemblage artist Rosalind Fedeli creates reliquary-like containers that are filled with artifacts. Each of her containers houses a miniature world. Fedeli combines found and fabricated objects as well as passages of painting within her boxes to express inner feelings, which are often laden with mystical overtones. As she states: “I entice the viewer to enter the world I’ve created, beckoning with mystery, passion and humor.”
