Become a Photoworks Friend
Print it out a photograph as big as you can on an A4 page. It doesn’t need to be colour, black & white is fine. Portraits work well for this.
Cut the entire image into strips each about 2cm wide. Lay out the photograph with your strips in order.
Now weave the image back together. Over, under, over, under.
