Handmade Project
Whatever you do, don’t eat the candy!
Hansel and Gretel is one of the darkest tales from the Brothers Grimm, filled with themes of abandonment, kidnapping, attempted murder, imprisonment, cannibalism, and cremation.
Incorporating key motifs from the story, such as sweets and sugar, I contrasted them with darker elements like blood and flesh. I crafted a collection of handmade melted wax apples, blending them with meat to design a minimalist and eerie book cover.
