my very talented friend

so this week i ventured to parts of London that only the brave would visit, the not so glamorous area of elephant and castle, yes its really called that, because of a shopping center there.. and my reason for going was to see my lovely friend shevone,s graduation collection from the book arts course at London college of communication,shevones work is based on a series of folding books,where each page is printed in strips of colors that each spell out a word, but only if you can decipher the code by looking at the abc example at the back will the sentance reveal itself...hope that makes sense ? the colors on these photos don't do the reality justice, they were bright and beautiful and would look amazing displayed in a room upon a shelf.. just how shevone displayed them...
another part of her collection was a limited edition run of small books that had been letter pressed with answers to the question "what is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you"... and this one is my favorite...because it was my answer... and my answer was slightly tongue in cheek, because even though someone did once say this to me many years ago, i know the person meant it in a nice way.. even if it is slightly offensive... i liked this one too...
hopefully shevone is planning an etsy shop soon where she will be selling some things, i will force her to open one... i will... i will...check out her blog, which is very new but it has some of her other amazing work..
