Book Arts in Tonga Part 3: The Finished Books

April 5, 2011

At the end of the week-long workshop, we enjoyed a traditional Tongan feast and put out our finished (and our not-yet-finished) books for a bit of show and tell. (Some of us–me, cough– didn’t finish until after returning home, but here’s where we were at the end of the final day):

And here’s my finished book:

Book Arts in Tonga part 1 / part 2 / part 3 / part 4

Joe is working to get some exhibitions of the show put together, hopefully internationally. I’ll keep you updated with what happens with the show.

Update: The project now has a website with studio photographs of much of the work:

    Fantabulous! Thanks for sharing this.

    Also, thanks for the paste paper write-up — I used it when preparing for a paste paper session with my after-school class.
