VA115 Project #3 Winter 2015
The Book as Art — Altered Book Project
Instructor: Brenda Fredrick
The space of a book is intimate and public at the same time; it mediates between private reflection and broad communication….enclosure and exposure…exterior gestures and internal journeys…books work as statements that stand on their own, they are realized and objectified embodiments of the intimate authority each artist claims . . .

This project is designed to integrate and synthesize all aspects of the course into a perceptually cohesive experience — it is a space of incubation and reflection, exploring both the possibilities of content and the found and altered book as a physical object that stands on it’s own as a work of art.
