Book Sculptures ~ Alicia Martin

Images: Juxtapoz

I recently came across these images of Spain-based artist, Alicia Martin's book sculptures on Juxtapoz. Aren't they breathtaking? They just blew me away. Can you imagine how long it would have taken to do each of these scultpures? I'm flabbergasted.

Alicia has apparently "created three site-specific installations using 5,000 books in each sculpture. The series is titled “Biografies” and is located in Madrid, Spain." Juxtapoz.

What's new with everyone? I was struck with an awful tummy bug last weekend which left me in bed for days & now I'm slowly trying to catch up on all of your blog posts from the past week. I hate missing out on anything!! This weekend I'll finally post some of my outfit pictures from The Capsule Wardrobe Project. As I was in bed a few days I've had to take a bunch of photos all on one day of all the outifts I would have worn on those 4 days if I weren't in my pj's haha! A lovely weekend to all...

    I am glad you're feeling better. Tummy bugs are simply awful.
