Denatured Book: Ship
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 0 comments link this post
This denatured book features a parchment-look cover with an aged map and a statement that "the world is covered by freedom, for it is covered by the sea." Though it may seem strange for a person very much land-locked in a plains state, the idea of endless water seems to be the epitome of freedom.
But wait a minute. Looks are deceiving. In a small glass bottle towards the bottom of the inside diorama, a small note reads "Save me." Even in our own search for freedom, we become bound.
The wooden display case is finished to looked aged and connected to the sea, with the backdrop a collection of book interior pages.
