- Banknote engravingFine parallel lines whose width carries the shading, spirograph rosettes and red serials on cream security paper. He swells until the note bends.
- Cross-stitch samplerEvery X is two thread strokes with sheen on even-weave linen. The needle stitches each picture in; a cold blue heart is unpicked and restitched red.
- Old stencil-coloured tarotBlack outlines with flat colour that slips off the lines, on aged card. The camera moves into a card and its picture comes alive in stiff steps.
- Circus chromolithographGlittery red, blue and gold ink on cream stock: big top, tightrope walker, bunting and a prize wheel, with the words strung up as banners.
- Stained glassLeaded panes with painted figures and lead-line outlines. Each window holds a scene; a watering can grows a flower in the desert pane.
- Silhouette cut-paperLacy black paper puppets in layers against a glowing, tinted sky.
- Hand-coloured emblem engravingCut-outs from 17th-century emblem engravings, washed in blue and rose: a sun-headed man and a moon-headed woman whose hatched roots knot together under the soil. Angels blow trumpets from clouds while engraved birds fly in to the branches.
- Engraved toy theatreEngraved paper players on a stage hung with red velvet: a troubadour sings beside a wheel of medallions, then the curtains part on a blue sky and trumpeting angels. The figures switch between a few drawn poses like puppets.
- Art NouveauFlowing line, arched panels, stained-glass light.
- Art Nouveau cut paperLayered cut paper in teal, plum and gold inside an arched Nouveau border. A peacock fan opens behind a petalled sun as it rises over a paper town, and its light ripples across the water.
- Pen-and-pencil diagram plateA real chart drawn as an old hand-coloured plate: fine warm-black pen over light coloured pencil on cream paper, the chart's boxes and bands turned into objects from a small invented world, every word lettered by hand.
