Here’s a favorite Pop-up structure!
Flag books have wonderful sculptural possibilities. With multiple angles of view, they provide interesting double-narrative potentials, contrasting viewpoints, or “yin and yang”, if you will. Viewers enjoy the visual movement of flag books. They beg the viewer to play and to keep interacting with the artwork. There are so many approaches to content. They’re excellent for creative poetry, wish lists, sweet nothings, photographs, abstract designs, and more.
We’ll cover basic adhesive skills, using both glues and adhesive transfer methods, the use of bone folders in folding, scoring, and adhesive control, and all the basic bookmaking skills needed. There’s plenty of time for discussion about personal project ideas, hybrid possibilities, and conceptual potentials while completing a small version as a template.
