This two days workshop will explore the accordion binding structure,
culminating in the creation of a flag book model. A flag book consists of
rows of single sheets (flags) attached to opposing sides of accordion
folds. This structure allows the artist to fragment and layer a number of
complementary or contrasting images and narratives. When read page
by page, the viewer sees disjointed fragments of image and text. When
the spine is pulled fully open, these fragments assemble a panoramic
spread. This transformation is accompanied by a delightful flapping
sound. The spine and covers provide opportunities for additional imagery.
