minutely-folded piece of paper, it displays both pictures and words in an immediate and Zen-like game of mountains and valleys. We’ll look at lots of book models –– some traditional, some new-fangled –– and practice paper-folding until our pleated elements are perfect enough to be turned into books. Expect to make two or three small books in paper wrappers, including some luscious handmade ones. A discussion about the nature of materials is at the hub of this workshop.M-Thu:
