So Sylvie

I was inspired by my friend Lisa to make something today. This vase sculpture is made from a (damaged) vintage hardcover book:

 

The process…

 

 

Remove the pages from the "boards"…

 

Sketch pattern…

 

Cut with razor or scissors, 6 to 8 pages at a time, depending on the thickness…

 

The pages were falling out as I cut, like tarot cards they held little messages…

 

I worked in the greenhouse, 100 degrees. Good thing I wasn't making candles…
