Over the course of four days, participants will learn how to make many different binds, incorporate found book material into sculptural work and play with pop-up structures. While we address the necessity of content within the technique, the majority of the class will focus on the accurate production of these multiple bindings. Emphasis will be on aesthetic choices of cover material and interior papers.
All students can expect to have strong, tactile examples of the history of binding while becoming increasingly aware of the voice a structure can create in art.
