Taking stories written by children with dyslexia a series of rings have been created by manipulating their handwritten type in Photoshop, laser cutting the forms out of paper, and electroforming them with copper to create a solid piece. The oxidisation gives them all a different finish and a look of imperfection, which reflects the children’s stories. Expressing that though their writing and reading isn’t perfect their stories could be taken and transformed into something beautiful.
