Lining is a book about fabric that touches our skin. Many garments are lined with specific fabrics chosen for their softness, pattern or warmth. This tactile book represents five of these fabrics. Each of the fold out pages is backed with a different textile, and printed with a poem. Microscopic images of each of the fabrics are cut through the pages, and the book itself is lined with rabbit fur.
