Thursday PAUSE: A Longing for Home & Lost Places with artist LouLou Marino

A recent visual book made by LouLou is called Hiraeth, a word in Welsh.

Hiraeth / n. (Welsh. heer-eye-th; with the “th” unvoiced) A spiritual longing for a home which maybe never was. Nostalgia for ancient places to which we cannot return. It is the echo of the lost places of our soul’s past and our grief for them. It is in the wind, and the rocks, and the waves. It is nowhere and it is everywhere.

How did she use pieces of her artworks and decorative paper to convey such a feeling and landscape? See the book from her exhibit “Un/tethering” and explore making your own book with papers from the Studio in a much smaller scale… to start with…

Registration required so we know how many people will be joining.
