PROP
Jan 19 2023
This was a 30-day challenge, and throughout this period, I embarked on a creative exploration involving the crafting of 30 handmade wads, known as 'propjes' in Dutch. Each day, I experimented with transforming a different type of material into a wad, using the classic paper wad as my initial inspiration.

The aim of this challenge was to delve into the process of transforming various materials into wads, drawing parallels to how paper can be shaped into a paper wad. I wanted to understand the levels of difficulty involved, as well as how each wad would differ in appearance and texture.

After 30 days of consistent, albeit sometimes complex, experimentation, I successfully crafted 30 distinct 'paper wads'. I am immensely pleased with the outcome of each individual wad and how they collectively form a visually captivating series. While they may not precisely resemble traditional paper wads, they share common traits and bear a resemblance to the original concept.
