This piece was created by Kyla McCallum for a project mentored by the German Fashion Designer Eva Gronbach in Cologne, 2007. The skirt holds 67 books with a total of 20,000 pages, each one folded by hand. Photography by Natascha Aplas.

Down Falls the Moon
Muse, Thoughts, Inspiration
#100
Massive (full) bookshelves
Heart, indulge your desire —
Now that doubt is dispelled,
The fire you fear to touch
Is a jewel in your hands.
Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic.
Quickly becoming my favorite song. It makes me smile.
….
Had an epiphany today.
Life is long.
And short.
Almost simultaneously. I guess it makes the world more interesting.
