Sculptures Made From Books by Guy Laramee

Book Art by Guy Laramee

wow. Probably the most intricate paper art i've seen. Artist Guy Laramee uses books as his sculpture medium to create interesting landscape dioramas from real locations around the world.

Artist Statement

....So I carve landscapes out of books and I paint romantic landscapes. Mountains of disused knowledge return to what they really are: mountains. They erode a bit more and they become hills. Then they flatten and become fields where apparently nothing is happening. Piles of obsolete encyclopedias return to that which does not need to say anything, that which simply IS. Fogs and clouds erase everything we know, everything we think we are.
