Bookbinding – A Spread of Star Books
Description
Come and play with folded paper using the simple concertina (accordion) structure flowing into more complex dynamic and delightful pieces. We’ll use cut, stuck and sewn multi-layering to construct star books with context and narrative and make a seven-point book structure with multiple possibilities in its pages.
Suitable for students with an interest in bookbinding, paper engineering, book structures and book arts, paper cutting, image and storytelling with paper. Ideal for bookbinders, book artists and complete beginners alike. Includes some materials.
Residential Fees From: £474. Non Residential: £344
Course runs from Lunch on Monday to Tea on Wednesday.
