We Make Art In The Edges Of Books For People To Find On The Library Shelves Of The World.
There is a story that the playwright Jo Orton went to prison for defacing library books in a London public library. this story stuck with me, and when I became an artist and got a chance, I asked my friends to help make art on the edges of books, that we would put back in the libraries for people to find. this included flip books, and Hidden Fore-edge books, that reveal an image when the pages are bent. We have exhibited these works in over 20 libraries around the world, and people are always surprised to come upon them on a library shelf. there is a book mark saying hidden art int he books we use, which are all old ones that the library would be getting rid of. So if you have a chance, look out for them on the library shelves near you.
