DIY Inspiration. “The Key to the Door in the Mountain”. This was made by Smallest Forest for the Darwin Visual Arts Association’s Annual Member’s Show (here on her Flickr Photostream). It is made out of:  ”Cigar tin, black and red nail polish, black felt, Madeira holographic thread, iridescent dimensional fabric paint, tulle and black embroidery thread.” I love the constellations (because I just do here) and the embroidery on the tulle. I can see doing something like this using a more common object here like an Altoids’ Tin. This was inspired by Jean Valentine’s poem: Door in the Mountain Never ran this hard through the valley never ate so many stars I was carrying a dead deertied on to my neck and shoulders deer legs hanging in front of me heavy on my chest People are not wanting to let me in Door in the mountain let me in

This was inspired by Jean Valentine’s poem: Door in the Mountain

Never ran this hard through the valley 
never ate so many stars

I was carrying a dead deer
tied on to my neck and shoulders

deer legs hanging in front of me 
heavy on my chest

People are not wanting 
to let me in

Door in the mountain 
let me in
