Burnt Letters Alphabet

Burnt Letters

Experimenting with the nature of paper, Sofia Biziogli burned many strips of paper then layered them to create the background for the letters. She then placed a piece of white paper with the shape of the letter cut out, on top of the background so that the viewer could see the burned edges of the background through the cutout. The irregularity and colour of the burnt lines contrast perfectly to the clear outlines of the letter and white page of the foreground.
