The Collecting Instinct project

Cast lengths of handmade paper grouped together to form a landscape inspired by contours on a map. Made with The Junior Art School at The Lightbox Gallery, Woking as part of the 'Recycled By Design' project. First shown in a solo exhibition, 'Translations', at the Lightbox in 2008, this is one of several iterations of the work.
