What do you do with your old and unwanted books?
Most people will either donate, recycle or maybe even throw them away, but Spanish artist Malena Valcarcel finds a much more creative (and stunning) use for them. With each page, Valcarcel constructs incredibly detailed and whimsical miniatures. Passionate about working with paper, she explains that “the concentration in detail I put on all my pieces makes me feel free and very, very happy.”
Check out her stunning works below.
