The Pictorial Cabinet of Marvels - mixed media green sculpted book

2016

About the Item

Adele Moreau constructs sculpted books from a variety of found media mainly 19th Century encyclopaedias and Natural History books. By re appropriating discarded items and preserving and enhancing what is often overlooked, she transforms them into objects of fascination. The original illustrations are carefully selected page by page and delicately hand-cut to reveal a hidden world within while still keeping the integrity of the original book intact.
