The Book of Nonsense | 满纸荒唐言

Photo-Transfered Artist’s Book with Handmade Bread Paper

8 ½ ”x 5 ½” ½”

2021

“The Book of Nonsense” showcases the fragility of knowledge and rationality. The words on the pages are manipulated in a way that the text is reversed, blurry, and overlapping - unreadable. The paper for the pages is made from bread, which turns the permanent material impermanent. The book is bound in a way that it is perceived as a typical book structure, but the signatures will scatter during unfolding.
