https://www.pitt.edu/~dash/grimm024.html Forced down a well to recover a dropped spindle, the beautiful and hardworking stepdaughter rescues burning cakes and shakes a tree full of ripe apples. She then so pleases long-toothed old Mother Holle with her housework that she receives a shower of gold. Her ugly, lazy stepsister leaps down the well in hopes of a similar prize but behaves badly and instead earns a shower of “tar” that “stuck to her as long as she lived.”

Star money is a Grimm brothers’ tale about a young orphan girl who ventures out into the world with almost nothing on her. She encounters a number of people on her journey and does everything to help them out, even if it meant leaving herself without anything. The stars show compassion towards her good deeds and cry gold coins so that she becomes rich. https://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/g/grimm/g86h/chapter154.html
Even though I had initially visualized seeing this piece in an exhibition I had nowhere to exhibit it safely. So for the creation of the tags I had to find other ways to do it. The first thing I did was create a sort of introductory ensemble explaining in small what the project was about and how it could help inspire people as well as giving them a way to personalize their tags. I then went to public places that were highly trafficked and asked them for a moment of their time.
