Carry
Me Down by
M J Hyland
Bound by Paul C Delrue
Sewn on four tapes, the edges coloured using acrylics, colours of browns, white,
red and touches of green.
Silk sewn headbands of matching colours to tone with the marked brown leather
wrapped around the
boards in the ‘Tudor’ style completing with the face looking towards
a misunderstood future life.
The face is in natural colour leather and onlaid onto the brown marked strips
of goatskin.
The blind lines are a kind of imprisonment, this effect also hints from the inside
covers,
which are covered in mid green leather. The book is housed in a protective up
and over box
coloured in cream buckram and lined inside with suede.
