filling the void

This is my latest project for a group show called The Red Thread, at the Kaleido gallery this summer. This "necklace" is made of scraps of paper in many different qualities, folded and sewn on to a leather strap, the name of the piece is Filling the Void. Other exhibitors, apart from members of Kaleido, are a group of dutch artists from a similar cooperative in Holland: Galerie Zône. After summer the show will travel on to Leiden, in Holland, in the beginning of September.

  7. This is awesome! I´ve just learned to bind books a month ago, and have also learned how to make the traditional "pipe-krage" as part of a costume-workshop. Super-inspirational! Thanks for sharing!

  9. This one reminds me a lot of a collar that my Dad used to wear when he was preaching.
