Handstitched Clamshell Book Sculptures by Odelae (Erica Ekrem)
“An ode to the Salish Sea…. from a butter clam shell (Saxidomus giganteus) discovered on the ocean floor off the coast of Orcas Island, a beautiful and sculptural clam shell hand-bound book. A little taste of mama ocean that will fit comfortably in the palm of an adult sized hand.”
My bad.
When I first saw this I thought the entire sculpture was a book;the parts that are shell were just different sizes of paper stacked on each other to look like the entire piece is a shell and not a book.
I like my idea better, but good one.
