Fission and fusion can convert mass to energy, what is the mechanism for converting energy to mass?

Question

Has it been observed? Is it just theoretical? Is it one of those simple-but-profound things?

EDIT: I really appreciate all the answers, everyone! I do photography. Please accept my photos as gratitude for your effort and expertise!
