The actual pictures, as seen in the sketch, are a digital picture of a railroad track (representing Tubman), with 3D scan of linen as the sky background (representing the exploitation of the children), possibly a 2D scan of an exploited child. The other postcard involves a digital picture of money (representing the wealth and generosity of Hopkins), a 3D scan of a book and possibly a 2D scan of the medical symbol caduceus (representing Hopkins' standards for healthcare and education, which relate directly to Tubman's cause). I'd like to mount these postcards in front of a mirror so that a viewer can read the backs to the postcards and experience both postcards in their entirety.

Cassie, I like the idea of making the postcards sculptural with the mirror, but as postcards, people would also be able to handle them and pick them up... Is there a particular reason you want th mirror? Also, I'd like to know if you have written the text yet?
