Creative Artist Jodi Gives Old Books a Second Life — Artist
Jodi Harvey Brown alters old books and gives them a second life by
making beautiful sculptures out of their pages. These wonderful 3D
sculptures of paper take a whole new look at the idea of a “pop-up”
book. Well known fictional characters, sea creatures, monsters, ships
and aircraft are brought to life by Jodi’s vivid imagination and her
great passion for reading. Jodi began book sculpting after being unable
to resist a box of used books at a second hand shop. After folding the
pages of one that had been crushed in the bottom of the box, she was
hooked. Each sculpture is a little more complicated than the one before
it, and at times Jodi includes hand illustrated figures drawing was her
first love. Her husband encouraged her to show her work on an artist
community and it was there she realized book sculpture is a valid art
form.
Really a creative superb
