BOOK SCULPTURES OF SU BLACKWELL

BOOK SCULPTURES OF
SU BLACKWELL

By separating and reworking the physical pages
of fairy tales books, cutting and pasting them
together, the artist designs enchanting
miniature installations atop
a laid open-faced book.

She assembles each piece entirely out of books,
occasionally encasing the sculptures in
wooden display boxes or glass domes
to add an interesting effect.
While placing the piece in a wooden
box gives the appearance of a painting
or perhaps a puppet show, the glass-domed
encasement adds snow globe effect.
