Valérie Buess
Boycotting Its Original Content (Pocket Edition)

2017

About the Item

In "Boycotting its Original Content, (Pocket Edition)" Buess has created a form that continues to operate like a book, its spiny pages bound like a codex. She has subverted the original content by rolling pages into quill-like forms, giving the work an organic composition like something that might be found in nature. Altered book, cut rolled and mounted.
