Paperwork bowls in three sizes. Lathe turned from recycled paper and books

HANNAH LOBLEY - PAPERWORK


After accidentally leaving a book out in the rain, Hannah Lobley developed the internationally exhibited and award-winning Paperwork, a unique recycling technique using the printed pages of unwanted books and paper. These pages are layered and transformed back into solid, wood-like material. Traditional wood working methods are then used to create sculptural objects from that material. The surface patternation of the paper when the objects are worked echoes wood grain. Wood becomes paper becomes wood.

Paperwork is committed to sustainability, combined with traditional making techniques; the material and objects produced are very tactile, open and adaptable appealing to many, from the book lover and art enthusiast, to the ecologically conscious, interior designers, architects and those just looking for the unique and unusual. Paperwork is available for sales, site specific commissions, and individual projects. Each product and material is hand-made in England; and is a one off, unique item in which the distinct surface texture cannot be recreated. Why not have something beautiful recycled and created from a book or papers personal to you?
