Register for this Workshop

Explore the possibilities inherent in the book’s function as a repository of images and ideas. Experiment with bookbinding structures, formats, and materials, using your own artwork and/or writing. Experiment with bookbinding techniques to understand how the book sets a stage for your work. Each participant will make six book models, cutting and collaging their own work to test out the possibilities of pacing, structure, sequencing, and scale of text and image. These book forms are sketches and experiments to test out how content influences the page format, material, and form.
