Sheltar
Theresa Werneke
Emotion meets artifact. In the context of a human‐object Theresa designed a contemporary version of a home altar.
Sheltar takes the shape and material used in traditional altars or shrines and blends them into something contemporary. Made of high‐quality materials, such as marble and oak wood the shelf offers space for memories.
Whether it is the picture of a deceased loved one or the trophy of an important victory. At first glance, this comparison may seem daring. But every person goes through different situations in life with the need for a diverse memories. Whether it is grief or joy. Background of this topic is the lost appreciation and attention of many things.
Today, too much is taken for granted. Theresa wants to remind everyone again what is personally sacred and valuable. With this new interpretation of a home altar, a place of devotion and silence is created. A place where your sanctuary is protected and supported.
