WHAT IS A MEMORY?
Unpublished book project written and illustrated by Gabriella Svenningsen and winner of the Tassy Walden Award - New Voices in Children’s Literature 2020.

Invitation and menu for a fictional lunch with Leonardo da Vinci, held at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, New York. Inspired by the typographic treatments of the Italian Renaissance, the invitation breaks the information between the two sides of the vellum, the transparency of which allows a nod to Leonardo's famous backwards handwriting.
