Mass production

Alicia Martín has created these large scale works with books. One constructed of 5000 (from out of date textbooks I hope). They have a Dr. Suess megaphonish resemblance quality to me.

From Amandine Alessandra these displays start from the quote “A book that is shut is but a block” and then look deeper as the blocks are used to construct letters, reminiscent of typesetting. Letters were constructed and white space created by wooden blocks, like the white books used here.
