This 1898 edition of Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Macbeth has been carved and woven to reveal Lady Macbeth’s famous words.
The act of carving, a destructive process, mirrors the destructive choices that led to Lady Macbeth’s unraveling. Each layer removed from the book represents another layer of conscience stripped away, revealing the words that haunt her. The woven threads act as a visible cage, echoing the constraints of destiny and the consequences of guilt.
