A woman creates sculptures inside books.

An artist is taking old books and turning them into works of magnificent art.

Jodi Harvey-Brown makes old reading material come to life in her collection dubbed ‘Book Sculptures’. In most of her works, the pages are grouped together and cut to create various scenes, but the paper is still attached to the book.

One art piece has a vintage ship cut from the pages. It stands upright, while the extra pages are sliced to appear like waves. Another one depicts two angels residing in an open music book. The wings and halos are clearly seen, intricately cut from the pages.

Jodi has several other works, where the book remains closed and the artwork is cut from the cover and others where the pages are cut and molded together to create objects like wreaths.

Jodi states “Books pull you into a new world, while art lets you see it. It made sense to me that these two mediums should come together. The books that we love to read should be made to come to life. “
