I collected some personal objects that in their essence reflect the place and event. I want to hide these objects in a holder that is made from the powdery material that I received from Jerusalem.
Here in Belgium I sieved the irregularities out of the dust to have a finer and more workable material. I then mixed it with some other clay to have a bigger quantity. 
After bisque firing, I buried the holder in the ground to let it patinate. So my souvenir will be hidden and rest in silence in the ground waiting to be discovered one day. Then the content of the holder may be revealed
