Bible work

Since I have been looking up biblical terms, I decided that the Bible itself should become a part of my work. I have only started exploring this but I hope to carry it through.  I bought a bible, and have now begun to hollow it out, it has taken me 4 blades already and I am only a quarter of the way through so it wont by completed in time for progress reviews. Once completed I am hoping to fill it with different juxtaposing items, perhaps a bar of soap as the girls used to scrub the dirty laundry by hand using bars of soap.

I also purchased another hard back book. I opened it in the middle and painted it white. I then bought some thorns and glued them on, in the hope they would look like text - biblical text. also referring to the crown of thorns jesus wore on the cross. this is still a work in progress and only my first attempt.
