Sarah Morpeth workshop...

Tomorrow I am going to a Sarah Morpeth workshop at uni. I can't wait I think her work is absolutely beautiful.


 These are the books she creates cutting away pages. 

I think it's amazingly beautiful how she takes something so plain like a book and makes it into a 
3D piece with such unique qualities.


Will upload picture of the pieces I produce from the workshop. 



All photos from Google images.
