Monday 6th of September 2010
Altered Books
with Jesse Mackintosh and Louise Irving
A Paper Trail workshop where we will deconstruct existing books and reassemble them, inserting collage, drawing, printing and rearranging the format with new pages to tell a story, logical or totally bizarre.
Come along with an old book you wish to work with or any collected papers and materials.
Materials assembled -
books, papers, print, scissors, rulers, glue, staplers, pencils, paints....
It's all hands on 'desk'
Everyone gets creative at the Altered Books workshop
Deconstructed book pages
become works in progress.
Layered collage work and 'inset windows'
provide an intriguing visual theme
throughout the pages of Corinne Batt-Rawden's altered book.
