Christmas Greetings (From a Fairy to a Child)
Moscow: Emil Goozairow, 2023. Emil Goozairow is a Russian artist who paints and draws, produces movies, and creates exceptional miniature handmade books that are printed on rare types of paper and published in limited editions. His techniques create unique designs that often are made with natural materials alone or in combination with relief decorations made from metal, polymeric clay, or 3-D printing. He creates books that he describes as "pop up," “kinetic carousel," “liporello” or “3D origami.” He also writes fairy tales, stories and mystical scenes.
This charming handmade edition of Lewis Carroll's well-known Christmas poem from a fairy to a child. The book has a special hexagonal folding design that Goozairow calls a "Bee Book." The book's covers have a three dimensional metallic polymer star-shaped structure. The book playful rattles when manipulated due to a hidden bead within the covers. When closed the book fastens with a brown cord that attaches to a hook on one of the covers. A delightful Christmas memento from this inventive book artist. In fine condition. Measures about 2.5 x 2.5 inches when closed.
