A Continuing Influence?

This project was to make a sculpture out of used books. The sculpture had to be something that was in the book not just something that comes from the world around you. We were told to only use the book and adhesive in this project nothing else. It took me awhile to figure out what to do. I had several different books to make something. I finally choose to make a laptop computer, which books can so resemble. It was hard to cut the papers of the book just right to fit inside. I then took off the binding on the book so that way it would be easier to see as a laptop. After cut the pages the right length I then put other pages on top that has no writing on them. This way the laptop does not look like a written on laptop. To make it look more like a laptop I put a keyboard and a screen that has a table on it. It took some time for the tape to stick on the other paper. I then choose a title for the sculpture taking something out of the book.
