I'm the storyteller, but I'm not very good at writing.

A handmade hardcover book, "Herbarium," with a pen & ink cover illustration of a tree surrounded by ferns, flowers, and a butterfly sits on a bed of brown leaves in the sunlight.

An inside spread of "Herbarium," a handmade popup book. A Venus flytrap unfolds as the page is opened. Text on the page: "But there are faster plants, whose movements are faster than us and faster than the wind: fierce, intuitive -- human. And they also seek their own story / destiny. And if you want to see how they communicate with other kingdoms, keep discovering them." Under the flaps of English text are the words translated into Spanish.

I learned paper engineering during lockdown by taking Silvia Hijano Coullaut's online class, "Invented Herbarium," and made this interactive popup book.

Yes. I usually read 2 books at the same time. And these two are definitely different from each other.
