I’ve always considered myself a life long learner. Sometime I learn from books, sometime it’s a hands on project, but I think I learn most from other people – from conversation – from sharing. With this in mind (and my passion for books), I’ve decided I want to do a little project. The SHAREBOOK Project.
I will take 10 or more old books- from give away piles, and quarter sales- and I will transform them. I will glue 2 or 3 pages together in order to make the surface more sturdy. I will cover the pages with Gesso and/ or India ink to create a blank slate for other creations. I will write the first letter explaining the purpose of the projects, some tips, and a few guidelines. I will then send them out around the world!
I will create a few guidelines/ rules in order to make this project more successful, but when it comes to creating your page(s), let your imagination run wild. Draw pictures, write a letter, give some advice, share a story, give words of wisdom, use paint, pastels, stamps, cloth, paper, glue……you get the point.
This project is about communication, bringing people together, and sharing. An idea can’t grow if you don’t share it. This is about creating cultural understanding, love for your fellow world citizens, and a creative community!
I will also create a Blog for this project, where people can share their entries. You may scan your entry, type what you wrote, or share even more in this blog. The blog is obviously not required to do the project, but I thought it would be a good idea to open it up to the people who never come across the book, or for people who want to see entries that come after theirs.
Put your thinking caps on folks…..
