Brilliance in packaging

Ruth Rae proves that packaging for an art object becomes part of the piece, dramatically influencing the viewer’s perception of the work. (I don’t know if she set out to prove that; but she did it, anyway.) This lovely ooak mixed-media piece — packaged on the left and unwrapped on the right — is one of a series of small works that Ruth is giving away, for a limited time, with purchases of her book.
