Monuments in the Desert

I am always on the lookout for inexpensive alternatives to stretched canvases as backings for my collages. I came across some interesting, and cheap, 10" x 10" wooden frames with recessed  mirrors in the center at IKEA and used twelve of them to create a series centering on key incidents found in Genesis-Joshua, before the Jews settled in the promised land.  The scripture references are given with the titles in case you wish to look up the relevant Bible passages.
