Pop Up

Rebecca Hooper, 2009, 'A Minimalist's Book,' Paper, 21 x 29 cm

I love that a simple horizontal cut across a fold can grow into a complicated cluster of three-dimensional shapes. This book starts off with a single cube and gradually becomes more and more filled, until there are so many they fold outside of the pages when closed. Around the time I made this I was looking at so many different ways to make a shape pop out of a page but the excitement of working in 3d took over and my cardboard boxes stole my full attention.
