Amazing talent

It's not very often I come across someone so brilliant that it takes my breath away! Dominique Falla of the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, is one such talented lady. She is known as the “Tactile Typographer” due to the specific nature of her art practice, combining craft mediums with a digital aesthetic. "How?" I hear you say. Well, it goes like this:
