How do you mark your page: Final piece





I felt that the most appropriate media to use for this project was book arts. This was one of my favourite modules so i was excited about the possible outcomes. With my responses from the Facebook page I wanted to create a book which effectively communicated them and engaged with the audience by inviting them to interact with the piece.

I began to experiment with possible page layouts and considered if a hand made book or an altered book would be more effective. I decided to use an altered book as it could then be a book that anyone was reading and could communicate with anyone. I looked through the responses and began to gather some of the objects which were mentioned, such as pill packets and train tickets.
Sketchbook ideas for page layouts and designs

Sketchbook experiments. scanned pages to experiment with collage and drawn elements


The book I chose to use as the main body of my piece.
The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

The new covers...


My collection based on the responses: Feathers, cinema tickets, pill packets, rizlas, pen lids, hair bobbles, train tickets etc.
