"Secrets in the Crowd"

The AIGA Link Program connects Seattle area high school students with creative professionals through nine monthly workshops. In March, I was able to fly to Seattle and guest teach a bookmaking workshop using out-of-date encylopedias as materials. Not only were the students excited about the project, but the work they produced was brilliant, compelling and entirely inspiriational. Here are some of the photos.

Using cut letters, the student spelled out words in the pages.

This student was interested in fashion-design, and used the encyclopedias to physically illustrate a dress pattern.
