Finished yesterday! Short video of my latest Coptic-bound handmade book featuring a map of New Norfolk on the covers, with vintage (stamped) sewing pattern tissue. Eco printed inside covers and pages with bronze stencilling.
Finding new ways to showcase my eco printed papers by adding stencilling or cutting them up for collages.
Had fun last night! Printing with paint on used teabag paper and vintage sewing pattern tissue. Includes my handmade abstract print blocks and a vintage wooden Japanese print block.
Here is a 39-second video of my (un)spoken words triptych – this gives a bit of an idea of how it has morphed into an interactive artwork which is still in-progress. Boxes and books made from eco dyed 200 gsm art papers; I also used parts of an old book, vintage pattern tissue, and handwriting.
My (in)visible threads project continues!
