Laser beam cutting

Patterns and cut pieces of copper leaf for the artist's book, Burning Me Open. The rigid pages that make up the text block are constructed of several layers, a sandwich (from the bottom up) of etched cast acrylic, copper leaf shapes and etched cast acrylic. The pattern shows which shape is used with the specified text; the samples have been cut with a laser. Handwritten notes by the artist on the printout of the pattern, and on cards inserted with the cut sheets.
