BOOK ARTS

Course Description

Through a combination of studio and seminar activities, students will develop an individual, limited edition artist’s book using a Risograph digital duplicator. Throughout the course, they will build skills in book structures, explore the relationship between text and image, and gain knowledge of papers suitable for bookmaking. Students will also learn digital file setup and imposition for book publication.

Readings and critical theory related to print media and book arts will support this work, alongside regular, in-depth consultations with the instructor and peers. Students are expected to critically evaluate and discuss their research and creative practice in a collaborative environment through presentations, group discussions, and critiques.
