Of course there’s a Star Wars example. Get over it people.

Get over what exactly? Star Wars? Why? Does people enjoying things offend you somehow? There’s also Gone with the Wind, Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter. Should everyone get over those too or JUST Star Wars?

These are undeniably beautiful… but books shouldn’t be “recycled” like this. They should be kept somewhere for others to read in the future.
Still, kudos to the artist.

SO MUCH TALENT! Although it hurts me to see pages all cut and folded, these are undeniably good.

“…but books shouldn’t be ‘recycled’ like this.” I get it, you still complimented the artist, but really?!
Everyday I see amazing things on this site only to be accompanied by some holier than thou comment. It’s art. Stop taking the piss out of everything. I hate some of the commenters on this site.

I love these sculptures and it just so happens I am teaching deconstructed books-what wonderful examples to use!

Brilliant work. Ignore those that say the books should be kept intact. Commenters Karen, Kid and Eternal chimes have it all wrong. This is a beautiful way to recycle books. Thank you for sharing your vision.
