- Description
- This accordion fold book is a shaped book in the manner of the child's game of cutting paper garlands. Each page is shaped like a dress with paper tabs at the sholders like paper dolls have. These references to childhood games contribute to the content of the short story printed along the base of each page telling of a memory Michaelis has of watching her mother get dressed for a party. Each side of each cut-out is made of a different patterned paper and edged with lace. Issued in hand-made silver paper portfolio. Signed by the artist
