While I'm working on new projects, I thought I would show some single-edition artist's books I made a few weeks ago. These all use the same images and materials as my previous ones, but they are assembled in more fancy ways.
The first one is a made from two accordion or concertina folds, sewn together back to back at the corners using a pamphlet stitch, and glued together at the ends. It actually folds up flat, which took some planning to achieve, given that the accordion folds are irregular.
The next two are made with the flag book construction pioneered by Hedi Kyle in 1979. It has since become a very popular technique. See some examples here and here. Again, the folds and flag pieces are of irregular lengths, which adds an interesting visual rhythm, I think.
Available on Etsy.
