A free talk with Chicago based Artist and Paper Engineer of pop-up books Shawn Sheehy.
Sheehy's presentation spans 30 years of his work as a book artist, frequently peering through the lens of ecosystem advocacy. His widely-collected artist books are pop-up catalogs of flora and fauna that consider such concepts as creature interdependencies, resource use and evolution. Rendering dry ecological concepts in pop-up form—and illustrating them with beguiling images—results in content that literally jumps off the page.
