Constellation

I came across a beautiful poem written by my sister Ananya recently. She seems to have written it as a stress buster while preparing for her exams.

I found it to be special because of the level of art that was involved in making it. First, she wanted the paper to be coffee-ish colored. So she made coffee and dipped white A4 sheets and dried them to get the perfect texture. I am sure that there is more to the “dip and color” process - I will need to ask more about it from her some other time. She then wrote up a poem, one per paper and rolled it like a scroll and tied the shoelace knots.

Next, I really loved her writing <3

Here is what was inside one of those scrolls - enjoy!
