A dusting of stars upon dim shores

Post stuff I like and for future reference. I don't follow many Tumblr's since it makes me anxious having to look at so many posts but you are welcome to follow me. :)

The Great Omar Peacock by The Makerie Studio. Life size reproduction of a peacock inspired by the cover of The Great Omar, a collection of Persian poems known as the most precious volume ever bound. The sculpture was produced for London paper merchants Shepherds Bookbinders using papers from their range, and is currently displayed in their Mayfair store. I cannot express in words how much I love this.

The White Omar by The Makerie Studio. The White Omar (or whatever its called) is a piece that explores the structure and form of patterns and shapes previously developed for an existing piece, The Great Omar, as a way of stripping back colour to highlight contours and light play across the surfaces. Currently being developed as a centre piece for a London boutique display. Photographs by Nathan Gallagher. The paper sculptures by The Makerie Studio are absolutely breathtaking. I’d love to create something as detailed and beautiful as this.
