Interview with Melbourne “Book sculptor” Nicholas Jones, at The Design Files. You have to see his work to believe it :)
I would describe my artistic style as book sculpture, although it has been referred to as altered book making, book surgery and other things. It has developed very organically over time. I have let the ideas come out very naturally, rather than using too much force. I make work at a reasonable pace, but I realise that if I try to work to quickly, the subtlety of the process is lost. Also, I can sometimes cut myself if I rush!
Sydneysiders will have the opportunity to see Nicholas’ work at Pablo Fanque in Paddington in July this year.
Thanks for the link! I cannot believe the response to that interview… Nicholas’ work has really struck a chord with such a lot of people :) Thanks for spreading the word… In addition to being a fantastic artist he’s also a lovely guy and really deserves all this exposure - Lucy
You’re most welcome Lucy :) Nicholas’ work is amazing and I hope to see his Sydney exhibition later this year.
