EMBROIDERED BOOK AND BAG FOR MODULE 4

The hinges are cords trapped between the 2 layers of paper.










I have made a concertina book using cotton rag paper in 2 layers, collage techniques, machine embroidery and drawn threadwork. The ideas are based on my experiences of depression. The bag is made from vilene painted with inks and bonded with silk organza.
