Double-sided hanging piece on hinged arm. Small pockets in silk organza fabric containing one hand-made paper piece in each. One side of each paper piece is white and embossed with text, the other side is brightly coloured. Looking at idea of duality and facades. Each small paper piece is edged in wax giving translucence.
