The Provenance
This Portal forms the first entry in the Plates & Portals department. It was selected for accession due to its architectural composition, internal lighting logic, and ability to contain atmosphere within a confined volume.
The Craft
Assembled and stabilised for long-term display, this object is constructed from layered materials including wood, metal, paper, and velvet. Dual internal LED sources create controlled illumination designed to emphasise depth and shadow without glare. The structural logic prioritises stillness, containment, and durability.
