Newspaper yarn art - rainbow - cloud
Description
Something unique - a newspaper yarn cloud (and vintage dictionary) with a rainbow created from the colours found within the newspaper. Though they seem black and white at first glance, cutting up and spinning newspapers into yarn can reveal a whole rainbow of colours! Bad news is turned into good and old stories into new ones.
The centre is made from the cloud entry in a vintage dictionary. Framed in a natural wood box frame (6'' square internally)
The item pictured is available is one of a kind but I am always happy to take on commissions - do take a look around my shop for more examples of what I have made from newspaper!
Inspiration
Striving to turn bad news into good news is what all of us do all around the world on a daily basis. Newspapers often tend to report very complex stories in black and white and indeed when we think of a newspaper black and white are the colours that spring to mind but tear it up and spin it into yarn and colours and complexity can be found.
I am inspired by those that pick apart news stories and try to disentangle the facts from opinion - there are too many to mention but Ben Goldacre and NHS Choices "Behind the Headlines" do a good job for health and medicine stories.
