Concertina poem — Anja Banjesevic

This illustrated concertina book is based on a poem reflecting on solitude, nature, and the desire to step away from society. The folded format mirrors the rhythm and flow of the poem, allowing the narrative to unfold gradually, like a quiet walk through the forest. The illustrations draw inspiration from natural forms and muted, atmospheric tones to capture the poem’s introspective and slightly melancholic mood — a meditation on escape, belonging, and the pull of the wilderness.
