I found these geology study cards on the ground during a walk in my neighborhood, probably fallen from a backpack. They are the inspiration for the sculpted book pages, still strapped with their original hair tie, and buried in a box covered in topography maps (on the exterior). Inside, the box is lined with sand and overseen by an erupting volcano. Vintage topography maps drawn by geologist Donald W. Fisher, Kinderhook NY
