About the Item

Unframed size - 18.5 x 12.5cm Adele Moreau constructs sculpted books from a variety of found media mainly 19th Century encyclopaedias and Natural History books.

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.
