1. The Book of Falling // by Inna Lipovets.
It is a textile zine, exploring the idea of grounding and surrendering oneself to gravity. Starting with a text it reveals the imagery of inner landscapes in their potential vertical movement. It is about gravity which is breathing us, about thawing towards grass and becoming a landscape we dare to become.
Materials: textile, paper, soil.
