Description
This is an hommage to Hedi. When we met the very first time, I discovered with joy there was somebody else on the planet collecting fruit stickers… so we started swapping. Then my friends started gathering stickers for me, so I’ve got a rather wide collection. I devised this structure (called “double wine flag book” because of the holding structure, made with half cuts like the wine packaging, no glue, no thread), inspired by a book made by Rutherford Witthus and seen somewhere in the web. Then I made two twin books and put a series of my stickers collection, and sent one of them to Hedi. Now I teach it in my workshops and it’s a success: you can also play music with it, opening and closing it – try!
