I would never have guessed that destroying a book could be so beautiful. You can tell when you look at each of his pieces just how much care he took when cutting out each individual section. It’s like looking at the inside of an old watch, back when they still had tons of gears and cogs in them.

The Book Surgeon, Brian Dettmer

‘Brian Dettmer carves away at picture books, never adding anything new to them but simply revealing new stories from their contents. Like pushing the book inside out, he re-works their contents and creates colourful and finely-crafted sculptures.’

Brian Dettmer, Webs New Inner Diction, 2007, Altered Book.
