Finally got around to taking the Artist's Book class, and the first assignment was, in my opinion, a criminal act. We were asked to find a book, then read it to figure out what it is about, and then tear the entire thing apart and then rebuild it as a sculpture. Using the ENTIRE book. It was incredibly painful to rip up a copy of Mother Goose, and the less said about that, the better. I am trying to block it out. But here is the concept sketch:
The sculpture is in the COSMIX III show at the South Florida Museum at the moment. This year's theme was "The Artist as Storyteller".
