Learn to make books that pop up, transform, unfold, expand, books that become theaters, movable structures or interactive experiences: movable books. Treat form and content as an interdependent whole as you create your own movable artists books in this hands-on, labor-intensive class. Research into historic and contemporary examples of paper engineering and movable books will inform our inquiry. If you have an interest in art, books, visual storytelling, or paper engineering and love to make things with your hands, this is a class for you.
