Paper Art with Upcycled Books: Cut, collage, and play with paper, to reimagine what’s possible, while sharing awareness on what's considered to be waste or trash. Participants will explore the endless possibility of paper with collage, assemblage, and repurposed poetry. Come dive into the world of old books and discover new inspirations to create your original 6x6.
Rachael Gootnick, a Rochester NY book artist, has combined a formal degree in publishing with a hands-on bookbinding apprenticeship to create the bookbinding studio, Just Terrific. With an emphasis on transitional moments of our shared human experience, her work questions what is typical, by utilizing alternative sizes, forms, and materials. Rachael has a deep appreciation for physical books and the printed word, and her mission focuses on sustaining their importance in our daily lives and legacies. She is a firm believer in reducing waste and puts an emphasis on sustainability by repurposing and utilizing otherwise unloved materials.
