I wanted to experiment with alternative and more unusual book structures to explore the concept of loneliness. Although I found the first experiment was successful for creating the connection back to the lake (where i took inspiration) by using the sticks collected from the location, the ideas of loneliness don’t necessarily come through. The concertina creates a more three dimensional structure. I find this does not support the papers enough as the structure wanted to collapse and this would not necessarily protect the papers very well.
