Su Blackwell

Su Blackwell is an artist from the UK who transforms old books into sculptures about the stories contained in the works. She inspires me because her sculptures are so delicate, detailed, and timeless.

 The Mad Tea Party- Alice
 The Baron in the Trees

Its hard to see all the details of this sculpture with this picture but there is a ton of little things hidden among the tree tops such as a clothes line, and an umbrella.


Wuthering Heights

Her works remind me of when I was first introduced to reading and felt the book just seem to come alive in my hands. The instillation below reminds me of how I felt as a child.

The Children's Study
