Ines Seidel is a book and paper artist based in Munich, Germany and probably best known for her altered books and paper objects.

About the work Seidel writes in her blog:

Instead of going on with their stories, these books remember where they came from and how everything began. I offered them black and white pictures of tree parts and dried twigs, all from my immediate surrounding. The books venture into a kind of regression therapy, where painful moments from childhood or even earlier lives are relived.
