Debbie Smyth artwork
I love love LOVE these amazing pictures by Debbie Smyth, made by wrapping thread around pins. Such a simple idea but such rich and striking results. Definitely one of the coolest stands at the show.

Aren't you in Japan, though? ;P

But yeah, there are some cool things going on here, although sadly most of them cost money to get into, which is something I don't have a lot of at the moment.

And thanks for dragging me back over to the blog - must do some posts again...
