The project
Archicercle manufactured these 20 cm bookmarks in its workshop using designs by Medusadollmaker. The project translated the detailed illustrations into birch wood pieces, with a testing stage to refine the result.
Medusadollmaker created the designs; Archicercle’s contribution was to manufacture the bookmarks and carry out tests with a galvanometer laser system. The collaboration focused on producing an external design, with distinct roles for the artwork and the production of the pieces.
Laser speed and power were varied during testing. Both adjustments are part of the documented work towards the final result, accommodating designs with numerous details within the bookmark’s long, narrow format.
The pieces combine the pale tone of the wood with dark line illustrations. Female figures, flowers, moons and stars form a fantasy-inspired visual language across the surface. The resulting bookmarks bring that graphic world to an everyday object used for reading.
