Model boat made from wire and tissue paper with traditional water gilding with gold leaf over red bole. Made during the 2020-2022 pandemic as a token of love, solidarity and connection at a time when travel was not allowed and loved ones could not get together. This is one of an edition of 350 boats sent by post across the globe in a participatory project called Do the Little Things.
