Book origami
Posted by staff / January 18, 2011
Dust off those boxes of old romance novels and give them new life with book origami. Artist Isaac Salazar folds forgotten books into eye-catching pieces of art:
“I see my work as a way to display a meaningful piece of art onto a book that would otherwise sit on a shelf and collect dust; it’s also my way of recycling a book that might otherwise end up in a landfill. The words or symbols I use are drawn from anything that invokes inspiration or encouragement, such as ‘Read,’ ‘Dream’ and the Recycle symbol. If my work also makes people look at a book and even art in a new light then the piece has done its job.”
