2 days ago I was working along Lord Street when I picked up a few discarded wedding magazines. Now wedding magazines have lovely thick paper, and gorgeous muted colours.
So, since I’m currently obsessed with the form of Jacob’s Ladder, I used some of the pages and pushed it a little further.
This particular piece is in fact 21 Jacob’s Ladders in various sizes. Not perfect, but quite pleasing!
I called it Tracy Lord’s wedding ladder because I found the paper in Lord Street, but Lord’s wedding sounds weird. But Tracy Lord was the Katherine Hepburn character in Philadelphia Story.
Tracy Lord’s Wedding Ladder: a book of sorts
