It brings together imagery and archival details inspired by Mexico, including Yucatán and Oaxaca field notes, botanical studies, archaeological records, maps, tickets, correspondence, and travel ephemera.

📜 ABOUT THE PAPERS
The six full-size printed archive pages are single-sided, leaving the reverse blank for your own creativity.
Use the backs for journaling, stamping, coffee or tea dyeing, additional collage, notes, sketches, or whatever your project calls for.
The smaller ephemera pieces are individually selected and assembled by hand. Because of this, your exact assortment may differ slightly from the photographs—but the theme, overall quantity, and character of the collection will remain consistent.
