birds of sadness...

images via studio on fire found via Dain & Mallory

studio on fire has made this letter press poster for a show, sweet hair, which benefits locks of love. it took me just a second to fall hard. letter press has such a nice texture and i've long been interested in hair, as a material and in victorian hair work and mourning objects.

the whole text, a chinese proverb, reads, "you cannot prevent the birds of sadness from passing over your head, but you can prevent their making a nest in your hair."
