Traditional Art / Collage

altered book
52 pages - 6x8 inches
1/13/06-1/31/06

a few years back i bought a book called "collage" from a book sale at my local library. it was a how-to-do-it book you might give your mother if she wanted to learn how to make collages. my plan was always to do something to it, but i never had the inspiration or energy to do so until last month. so here it is. hope you enjoy. it was fun. glad i'm done.

[and apologies to those of you who have a dial-up connection like i had when i uploaded this, but this was the smallest file size i could come up with without causing too much degradation of the images and text.]

In the words of the suggester, "collage this by =fredfree is a pithy work of art. It begins with a "how-to-do-it book you might give your mother," which he has altered with various collages on the pages; then within the book itself are numerous subtle statements on collages and modern American society and pop culture. Not only is Collage This a prime example of the rare art of altered books, but it is a clever conceptual piece of work." collage this by =fredfree ( Suggested by ~Nova-FoV and Featured by `limnides )
