In mourning the unexpected loss of Pipo and his wife, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTrần Nam Phong, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eI wanted to make a gift for the vast 'photo family' that Pipo built over nearly 3 decades of teaching photography. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e I made a small clay altar with a slot for a photo, and I would like for anyone who loved Pipo or Phong to have one if they wish. There is a sliding scale option to offset the raw costs of materials, firing + shipping, I have no interest in profiting from this work. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded is a nail, matches, and a handful of beeswax candles. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe candle burns for 30 minutes, and near the end of the burn when the candle is low, you may slide a small photo (2\" or so) into the slot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSafety note: don't leave the photo in place while the candle is still tall.
