Inspired by the Paper exhibition, today I played around with making my own paper. I used different coloured silk that was then pressed between sheets of mesh with wall paper paste to form the paper. After leaving it over night, the silk and paste dried out to make a stiff sheet that I'm hoping to print on top of. The bright orange and silky texture of the paper reminds me of the saffron coloured robes that hundreds of monks wear in Luang Prabang.
