Interpretive text
Adele Outteridge exploits the simplicity of the Coptic stitch, a traditional book binding technique, as both a functional joiner and aesthetic focus. When the acrylic ‘sheets’ of this book are spread evenly, the thread creates an orb shape, hence the title “Gaia,” or Mother Earth.
