The After Dinner Mint
During my waitressing job, I would clear up the tables. We gave out after dinner mints with the bills and they were wrapped in this gold tinfoil and I started noticing when I was clearing the tables that everyones looked very different. People would roll them up, twist them and fold them into different shapes. I thought about how my Dad always does this too - trying to make his wrappers into the smallest shapes possible - it was something he, and these customers, don't even think about/ notice they do. I decided to make a flip-book of all of the wrappers that I collected over a week to show this very endearing human behaviour.


Some of the collected wrappers
Details:
-
A sleeve with the title and description printed using letterpress to give context to the project.
-
The photograph pages bound using thread and then capped off with one of the mint wrappers - this provides extra strength and adds a tactility to the publication.
-
Photography only in the publication - the images speak for themselves and are true to size.
