If this project was to be printed, I would go for a small paper size. About as big (or small) that it can fit in the palm of your hand, but not bigger. With this, I would like to reinforce the feeling of holding on to something you can barely grasp.

As for the paper, I would consider using an alternative kind of paper, such as one made from cotton, tobacco, coffee bean, or other recycled fabrics. It wouldn't feel right to print my project "on a tree" since paper is usually made from wood. By printing on an alternative paper, I want to accentuate the fragility of nature's existence and make people think about the impact their daily use of paper has.
