Norris - Landa May

$220.00

This piece titled 'Norris', is a paper-crafted homage to the classic trench coat, reminiscent of what my Grandfather would have worn.

The trench coat's primary material is paper, carefully dyed with tea to achieve a warm, aged patina, mimicking the weathering of a well-worn garment.

Complementing the coat are hand-painted and textured papers, adding depth and tactile interest. Fine sewing details further enhance the realism. A miniature paper rucksack accompanies the coat, completing the ensemble.

The backdrop is a photograph taken in Pompeii during my travels through Europe, printed with Giclée on high quality art paper.
