À propos du livre
Bibliomuse 1 is a sub-series of the KEEP: Modern Library series by Jody Alexander that looks to withdrawn library books, Japanese textiles and the art of repair as inspiration. Included in this book are images of the library books that act as muses and images of the artwork that they inspired. All Bibliomuse 1 pieces are obsessively machine stitched creating a new textile in the process. Artists' books, wall pieces and three quirky 3-D pieces are included in this sub-series and are beautifully photographed in this publication. Please note that in order to keep the cost down this item is categorized as a "magazine" with thinner paper than the books which makes for a more casual production. The color and printing quality are approved by the artist and her photographer!
