The construction and form of the bookwork set it apart from ordinary mass market books. It is a craft object where content and form come together to create an artwork that can be admired for its physical beauty and engaged with by opening it up. Books can take our minds away from the present moment into the realm of imagination, memory and aspiration. Likewise the bookwork is a vehicle for thought and expression. This blog looks at the book as art and all things related to books.

To The East the Mirror
Art House Lewisham - Deptford X
MONICA RIVES KASIA COLEMAN DEBRA WELCH VICTORIA KING
FIONA MEAKIN THEA WILLCOCKS
Six artists engaged in a dialogue by means of the pages of artists books exhibit their work at Art House. It was interesting to see how the artists' work overlapped and mirrored each other. The pieces were exhibited well to created a reflective space in which viewers could ponder on hidden meanings.
