Create your own unique books! An experimental book making class that correlates texts and books into sculptural form. Students will acquire skills of various bookmaking techniques, enhance their writing skills, and focus on sculptural craft with different mediums to think beyond traditional binding methods. We will learn about various artists that include bookmaking as part of their practices, the artist’s book organizations, independent publishers and book fairs. Guest visits and field trips to book art spaces will support in expanding the possibilities of bookmaking.
