Volcanic Rocks in Solidification Codex Journal Washi & Wood Pulp Paper handcrafted by Calle Soledad Presa 

This Codex Journal is made with wood pulp paper and washi paper as the cover, two textures for drawing and ink. The cover paper with  fragments of watercolor is an igniting representation of watercolors, and emotions of water. What memories does water hold? And how many colors are there in these memories? The heat of the sun with geometric shapes, morphing and shifting with every glance. 

As Above as Below. How do we direct knowledge and receive it? This codex is meant for both external and internal processes. Its soft interior pages are a light grey with subtle texture and opacity. Meant for the poet, artist, filmmaker, creator, scientist, thinker, or anyone exploring the relationship of the internal/external world.
