Hollowed out bible no. 3


I'm trying to make each hollowed out bible piece original and individual while keeping them as an obvious collective. 

For this I used an orthodox icon in  brass with a card depicting mary and Jesus' face/hands being visible. I gave mary the skull characteristics that tie in with my CDV pieces. I chose not to do that to the baby Jesus depicted as I'm not intentionally trying to offend anyone (with him being the saviour to millions) and as told in the bible he's immortal anyway.
