Crafty Crazy Nag Hammadi!
with Erin Sweeney
June 14, 2014
10:00 am – 5:00 pm
The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Anderson Hall, 2nd Floor Bindery
Using a simple long-stitch binding typically hidden underneath the case of a book, and a simple one-section binding, we will create wild sculptural books by sewing up pages made of crumpled prints that have been smoothed out. Students will learn two simple binding techniques, and learn how to create texture and form by manipulating your text papers. Additionally, we’ll combine materials by using over-sewn canvas and laminated paste papers for our covers, furthering the experimentation with material, all the while discussing ways to incorporate text and image into these structures.
$75/Members, $95/Non-Members, $15 Materials Fee (paid to the instructor the day of)
