Tree Bark Book I. Handbound...

JENNIFER MOSLEY-BA(Hons) & BENJAMIN KNIBBS
"Art and books complement each other – a piece of art maintains its own story, concept and part of history, just as the published book does."
‘The Wren and the Writing Desk’ is an online gallery of Benjamin and Jennifer's work.
Jennifer's sculptures are mixed media, inspired by fairy tales and childhood memories.
Benjamin’s hand-crafted books are made from natural objects found on Budleigh Salterton Beach and local woodlands.
Benjamin is a self-taught book binder and creates journals by hand. He uses materials that are often overlooked or dismissed as not suitable for bookbinding. Natural materials often have flaws, and these imperfections are to be celebrated- such as flaking paint or patina on salvaged wood, a trace that can tell a story.
Benjamin's mission is to seek out materials that are sustainable, leave a light environmental footprint and to create books that can last a lifetime.

I have always wanted one of the figurines but have reached an age where I am trying to reduce the house contents! However the beautiful quality of the pictures on these cards goes some way towards satisfying my wishes! Unfortunately that means I can't use the cards to send wishes to others. I shall have to buy some more for that!
