Max story : Fernando Sica. Artist Brian Dettmer Carves Old Books into Intricate Narrative Sculptures... - StumbleUpon. Most of Dettmer’s focus is on books, favoring out of date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books and dictionaries.
He begins carving away arbitrarily at the pages, letting the images reveal themselves as he moves through his process. He seals the edges of the books to ensure precision, which also transforms the splayed edges to look like a smooth and sanded piece of wood. Carefully extracting bits and pieces, he creates a narrative within the books’ contents, revealing selected sentences and images. Pop-up. Teddy Laheyne made this pop-up book and it is totally awesome.
