Sometimes love cannot be seen. Where can it be hiding?
After Silence comes Love, the second picture book in the Treasures of the Present trilogy. On a gentle stroll through leaves, roots, and flowers, a little girl’s sense of wonder keeps us company. She finds love sprouting from the roots, singing in the birds, and showing itself in a kind word. It reminds us that, at heart, we are all woven from love. We are the thread, we are the web, we are heartbeats of one and the same light.
Nvola Uy made the illustrations from paper cutouts combined with natural plants, leaves, flowers, roots, and artisanal wool from local sheep, then photographed them on a lightbox. The result is a luminous, tactile world where dream and nature meet.
The book is printed on Cradle to Cradle Certified(R) Silver Stone Paper by Cuento de Luz, a Certified B Corporation.
