- Summary
- One day in March 2011 staff at the Scottish Poetry Library in Edinburgh noticed a wonderful paper sculpture left on a table. Carved from paper and mounted on a book, it bore a tag expressing support for the library's work. Over the next few months, 9 more mysterious paper sculptures appeared in arts venues throughout Edinburgh. This text presents the 10 paper sculptures.
