The Sunday Paper #300
February 23, 2020
Two contributors to the book I’m writing recommended Tant origami paper, which I’d never heard of before. But you know how when you hear about something, it starts appearing everywhere? I was talking to a paper distributor a few weeks ago who told me that Tant is packaged in Echizen, the paper town I visited in Japan. Well of course, I had to get some to see for myself (and of course, to re-create the projects that are being contributed to my book). I got a pack of 100 sheets (6″ x 6″) in assorted colors. I created the weaving you see here during Weave Through Winter (my online class that wrapped up last week). Oh, and that little 300 in the middle is because this is the 300th edition of The Sunday Paper! I wonder if anyone has read all 300 issues?

I am busy creating the prototypes for the projects in my upcoming online class Flexible Book Structures. This is an expanding file folder book with a magnetic closure.

I love the simplicity of pure white paper. Angela Glajcar creates environments using just hand-torn paper, light, and space. Her work is on view through March 28th at K.OSS Contemporary Art in Detroit.
