Folded Linocut Booklet

Origami Booklet from Linocut by Lily S. May

This is another folded booklet I’ve made in the past month or two from an old linocut.  It was an image of a mythological mother nature becoming a tree and was another subtraction print.  That is, I made it from one block that I progressively cut away and printed.

Unfolding the Origami Booklet

Here, I tore, folded and sewed it into an origami folded booklet.  The folds and parts of the image that showed on each page surprised me–one of the most enjoyable parts of the process.
