Original book title:
Talking Peace by Jimmy Carter
Retired from the Coquitlam Public Library
First I cut out two blocks of paper on each side of the book. Each opening is 3.25"x6.3875" and about .25" deep. These areas were then filled with a geometric mosaic of corrugated pieces and tiny squares of recycled pink marble.
For a splash of color, I also framed the mosaiced area with cut paper to match the cover of the book, where I also added some recycled tissue paper.
Yarn, string and pieces of metal have been added at the centerfold of the book.
This book is designed to sit on a shelf or other flat surface.
