Georgia Russell uses a scalpel to create these intricate designs, which are cut out of books. The first photo is cut out of the cover and suspended in an acrylic case, it looks amazing and must have taken a long time and a steady hand to do! But the end result is beautiful, I especially like how the design has broken out of the dimentions of the cover.
The second uses the contents of a book and looks very natural, as if it is growing within the bell jar, which transform how we see the object by giving it a whole new context.
The way she encases them gives a very delicate feel, which mirrors the delicate making process and makes them feel out of our reach.
