Fairytale Reliquaries: A Beginner’s Guide to the Miracles and Healings of Fairytale Characters.
“This relic promotes the sleep-wake cycle and reduces the time it takes to fall asleep…”
Authors Ortiz and Gadler have imagined a series of relics belonging to classic fairytale characters and other iconic remains, each endowed with miraculous and healing properties.
To clarify these properties to devotees, each reliquary is accompanied by an information leaflet, inspired by that of modern medicines. It describes the properties, uses, methods of use, and instructions for proper storage of each relic, ensuring its effectiveness and protecting it from the ravages of time.
The result is unique decorative objects that reinterpret central elements of sacred art in a contemporary way, with a delicate touch of humor.
