Since I’ve just shared my latest collaboration with @erinmorgenstern (a tea companion to The Starless Sea), I wanted to revisit this work I created for the @nbssboston exhibit last spring. I wanted to create an enclosure for The Night Circus and it’s companion tea I created. The enclosure was meant to evoke the feel and highlight the thematic colors of red, black & white (including the papers I marbled), and subtle stars and clock motifs. I wanted this to act as an offering for someone to invite them to step into an immersive world of the story with its companion tea.
I have learned so much since making this, and so much would be done differently if I made this today. But I do love this as a capsule moment of where I was at at the time in my bookbinding journey. And it delights me greatly to know this is now with Erin.
