Alphabet + Place - An accordion fold book

I've compiled my alphabet created from maps into this accordion fold book. The book measures 11cms x 11cms.

Fabulous finished piece Maya! I love the purple and the red, they are so striking, and the way the maps peep out from within the letters and the folds.

About A Letter a Week 2014

Welcome to A Letter a Week 2014, a project that began in 2010 and is primarily about having fun, experimenting and having a regular, small project to focus on each week.

The aim is simply to:

Write/create a letter a week

Creating 52 letters

Which must form 2 x alphabets (that is, not 52 x the letter ‘A’)

By the end of 2014

The main rule is that the letter must be presented on a piece of material measuring 7cm x 7cm

– this helps keep a sense of uniformity amongst the pieces which helps with exhibition coherence.

The other criterion for 2014 is that ONE alphabet has to meet the criteria of "Place”.

- that means the alphabet references place in some in way, but is still presented on the square. It could mean the alphabet describes a place; is photographed in a place, describes a place, reflects a place, tells a story of a place, a special place or the place where you live or work… Each alphabet must be turned into a final piece which could be used for possible publication or exhibition.

- that is, you must put all the letters together into a final piece of art.
