Floating Spine, 2017

Floating Spine
11,8 × 8 × 1,3 cm
Kathy Abbott
invited me to participate at Tomorrow's Past''s exhibition at CODEX, San Francisco in 2017. My work on the Floating Spine started in 2015, when I invited Jen Lindsay, Kathy and Tracey to teach at the Centro del bel libro. I participated at their courses and was very much inspired by Tracey's binding solutions. I explain the whole process in the pdf beside.
