Drawing “Francis, Dick. Field of Thirteen. London: Michael Joseph,1998 ” by Emma Lehto

“Francis, Dick. Field of Thirteen. London: Michael Joseph,1998 ”

Deconstructed book, cut paper | 6.5" x 9" | 2009

In this piece I was incredibly fascinated by removing elements from the book anatomy without removing the familiarity of book form. In each chapter I altered the layout, each chapter was treated differently- one had all of the verbs removed, another had the leading removed between text, and another I wove paragraphs into each other. 

This piece was in the group exhibit: "Between the Lines" at Gallery Atsui, 2009.
