This bag was made by manipulating the natural properties of gelatine and glycerine, which create a leather-like material. Use of a a high heat air dryer causes the composite to melt and change in shape and size. It is then hand-shaped into the forms needed for the object, a difficult process that could tear the material at any moment. The cooled-down leather is very stable, however. This makes the bag as fragile as it is sturdy.
