Creative Book Carvings

A beautiful way of carving away at this layered but solid form, to create art. There are many different forms of book art; the newest I've researched is by an artist named Guy Laramee, who focuses in landscape designs. Among his sculptural works are two incredible series of book landscapes entitled The Great Wall and Biblios, where the dense pages of old books are excavated and carved away to reveal serene mountains, plateus, and ancient sculptures. This is yet another form in which artists are taking mundane and common objects of our society and creating something so fresh and creative.
