Art Worth a Thousand Words

None of that “how to draw manga” crap here. Ros Rixon is relatively new to the art scene; therefore, there isn’t that much information on her or her work. She graduated from the University of West of England in 2006 and spends her time creating art out of books. She says that she often feels “creativity is challenged.” Her work is mainly conceptual and her book sculptures started out as a fun project meant to bring light to the piles of art books that “teach people how to be an artist.”

Many of her sculptures employ sharp knives which she uses to carefully snip out each necessary word in a book.
