SHANGRALA'S
BOOK
AND
PAPER
ART!
Here's some beautifully detailed art work. By no way are these sculptures easily
built, as making something creative from something so plain is insanely hard.
The sculptors had to painstakingly add the details into every possible part of
their sculpture. And yet, here we are looking at several inspiring and meticulously
made sculptures.
Here's Photos Of Some Awesome Art. Enjoy! :)
A Fun Time With Knowledge. This book sculpture features very detailed skeleton
sculptures and old school music player, but what made this sculpture really
special is the fact that nobody knows who created it - the artwork was delivered
to a library or certain event secretly.

Plant of Appreciation. Another secretly delivered book sculpture with aggressive
details. Next to the tree sits a paper egg lined with gold and quoted parts from
the poem 'A Trace of Wings' by Edwin Morgan. (Image Source:chrisdonia)
Teabreak. A sculpture with beauty and elegance crafted in. It was found at the
Edinburgh International Book Festival with the tag, reading 'To @edbookfest 'A gift' This
is for you in support of libraries, books, words, ideas... & festivals. XX'
Really mysterious, huh? (Image Source:chrisdonia)
Dairy Nets & Soda. You can't deny that this sculpture is epic. Brian Dettmer takes
a thick book and transformed it into an extremely impressive book sculpture, and
what's unbelievable is, he didn't add anything extra to form the sculpture!

Mound 2. By just removing what was there in the first place, a boring, abandoned
book can even be turned into something fantastic and remarkable. Hat tip to the
creator. (Image Source:Brian Dettmer)
Tab. Brian Dettmer is not only good at sculpting one book, as this sculpture
composed by several books will prove to you.

The Household Physicians. As the name of the book implies, all the colorful
anatomy images came from the book itself - the sculptor just removed certain
parts of the book to reveal the gems inside. Genius. (Image Source:Brian Dettmer)
Anthologia. Doubtless to say, Jacqueline Rush Lee's book sculptures are one of
the most unique in the industry, and a lot of hard work was put in to make them.
For this one, it was hand-painted, sanded, inked, and completed with bookmarks
and archival glue. (Image Source:Jacqueline Rush Lee)
Unfurled. Extremely eye-pleasing colors. The form is quite abstract, but you can
feel like it's a real creature that exists in our world!

Flutter. Splendid colors, dynamic lines, great expression. Truly a genuine product
of art.

Lorem Ipsum II. What would you perceive this as? I never knew that the
combination of books can form such a lively 'creature'!

Grand Larousse. Guy Laramee has his own passion on the art of book sculpting. His
book sculptures consist mostly of landscapes, and this sculpture is just one of
his greatest products of passion. (Image Source:Guy Laramee)
Longmen. Form an epic geographical existence with just 9 Longmen books, seriously?
And this sculptor has just done that.

Book People. If you want to argue that life and spirit existed inside a book,
this piece could be your most persuasive proof. (Image Source:Guy Laramee)
Petra. There's a world for you to discover in every book. (Image Source:Guy Laramee)
What Have We Become? Vol. 1 Nicholas Galanin is good at turning a lifeless book
into a face with rich emotions that are sometimes even more expressive than a
human's face.

Tlingit Vol.11. He's silent, and he's looking at you. For a second, you might
believe that he's alive. (Image Source:Nicholas Galanin)
Garden of Forking Paths. Many might have done the paper sculptures with
these kinds of shapes, but few are as precise as Nicholas Jones' book sculptures. (Image Source:Nicholas Jones)
Das Moderne Orchester. The right book and carefully crafted shapes, these are
all you need to create an inspiring sculpture like the one showcased below.

Rose. Can you count how many of the books are linked to create this unique book
sculpture? Besides, you can also view similar sculptures with fewer books; just
click on the same image here:

Scorpion. Gotta love the tail, simply because it's so awesome. (Image Source:Robert The)
