Lily Gladstone at the Met Gala 2024, wearing gown by Gabriela Hearst, and jewellery by Kiowa jeweler Keri Ataumbi.
At first, it seems a rather muted look for the Met Gala, but every detail has significance. Read the story in Vogue.
The gown and cape are embroidered with constellations of recycled silver stars.
“Our ancestors are in the constellations - we're star people.” Keri Ataumbi.

24-3. Mixed media, with recycled/repurposed materials including scrap paper, cedar remnants, and acrylic paint peeled off a discarded painting.
I changed my mind and decided to use a numbered format for this series after all. Giving the series a thematic name (Metamorphs) felt too confining, and I spent too much time agonizing over whether a new piece really fit the name. I'm still focusing on transforming and honoring the beauty of recycled, repurposed, and rescued materials, but the numbered system gives me a bit more freedom to evolve and explore.

EARTH IS MISSING! / EVERYONE'S WORLD IS ENDING ALL THE TIME
this spring I entered the Elizabeth Soutar Bookbinding Competition held by the National Library of Scotland. The theme this year was climate change. I didn't win any of the categories (I certainly didn't think I'd win any of the Craft categories, but I thought I had a decent shot at the Creative categories) but I am very happy with how my binding came out anyway!

under the cut is the details of the binding and the process that went into it, plus a full list of the texts included.
this is a modified 3 piece bradel binding - a 3 piece bradel is usually made with leather spine with the spine attached to the textblock and the front and back covers added on after. there's another variety of a 3 piece bradel case where the spine and boards are assembled with a thin piece of paper to later be covered with a bookcloth. I wanted to use some leftover misprint cardstock I had (the same stuff I'd previously used to make paperbacks) and I wanted to print the titles directly onto the covers and spine (specifically I wanted to overprint the titles to imitate the existing misprint), and in order to fit it through my printer I had to have it in three pieces. so I assembled a bradel case as if it were to be covered with a cloth, only the cardstock I was using to assemble the case would also be the cover material.
everything I used to make this book was recycled or reused, with the exception of the greybeards which were new (I didn't have any rescued book boards from secondhand books at the time). the text paper is recycled eco-craft paper, the endbands are re-used macramé cords wrapped in green wrapping paper that came from a gift bag, and as mentioned, the cover material comes from a misprinted running sheet.
a few process photos of getting the case together:

in terms of content, I took care that not only should the binding fit the theme of climate change - by using recycled and reused materials - but the text inside should also fit the theme. there were a lot of considerations there because I could easily have just bought a copy of something like Greta Thunberg's speeches and rebound them, but I wanted the texts to be something that made sense to me. so I went and looked at the SFF magazines I read for climate fiction and essays, I looked for academic papers, and I looked on Gutenberg for older pulp fiction relating to climate change. once I had a selection of texts I pared them down to two categories, fiction and non-fiction, and decided the most fun way to bind them would be as a tête-bêche with fiction on one side and non-fiction on the other, and this then informed how the binding would physically turn out - the modified 3 piece bradel.
here is the full table of contents for each side of the book:

Škoda already makes extensive use of recycled and recyclable materials in its cars. However, it is constantly working to incorporate more, not only to comply with future European legislation, but also to be a sustainability trailblazer in the car industry and to achieve the biggest possible reduction in its carbon footprint and fossil fuel consumption.
The second IVET Show Car study shows some steps being taken towards this goal. This time it is based on the production model of the Škoda Enyaq.

While the previous study showcased the use of natural materials, the concept now focuses on the maximum use of recycled and recyclable materials.
Skoda's concept car uses some ideas that are very unconventional or haven’t been possible to implement so far.
“Until recently, it was almost impossible to recycle painted parts. Now we have a bumper made with a high proportion of material from old bumpers,” says Luká�� Zuzánek, development engineer for sustainable materials, describing another innovation in the use of recycled plastics.

On the work table: 6 small square studies in progress. Inspired by, celebrating, and iterating upon the idea of the complex beauty of the forest floor, expressed through different ways of combining diverse, precious, and unexpected materials. (And also a good way of practicing giving myself deadlines, sticking to a limited scope, and finding ways to produce work at a more accessible price point without either devaluing my labor or completely compromising my vision.)
