Pocketful of Pigeonsby ~cryslara

Edit: Aww, wow, thanks for the daily deviation love, guys.

There'll be more books to come in the future, I'm a little bit in love with the whole thing.

Please go here and tell Zoe how amazing her writing is - it would make her day and her fluttering poetry deserves all the praise it gets.

Long time no see again! This was one of my uni projects this semester.

I make books and occasionally I make books that have things in them. This is a pigeon-book about pigeons and books - that fluttering moment of a flock and the confusion and scatter of feathers, pages, birds and books.

My friend Zoe wrote a beautiful poem that makes up the story - her original longer version can be found here and it’s wonderful: [link]

This is a mix of paper cut outs, ink drawings, paper made from feathers and old essays, photocopy transfers of ink drawings and all fuelled by an obsession with birds that I don’t think is disappearing anytime soon.
