Altered Book . part I

I found it at Marcus Campbell's bookshop in London. where often you can find very nice books very cheaply also.
it is actually a catalogue of an exhibition of drawings based on photographs. I liked how book was firm and like a block of wood for me to carve something out of it. so I did. Drawings inspired me to cut out a word on each spread. the word became a hole, a cut through a page onto other side, thus becoming two words. other one is mirror image of the first. they make a story. my story, separate from the story of the drawings.
