1. A Sense of Place
Artists and designers such as Judy Barrass, Sarah Bodman, Brian Dettmer and Ed Ruscha have all produced work in the form of an ‘artist’s book’. Techniques used in the making of artists’ books include concertinas. Scrolls, pop-ups and boxed single sheets and a combination of words and images are often used.
Research appropriate sources and produce your own artist’s book in response to Sense of Place.

2. A Sense of Place - definitions
‘People develop a "sense of place" through experience and knowledge of a particular area. A sense of place emerges through knowledge of the history, geography and geology of an area, its flora and fauna, the legends of a place, and a growing sense of the land and its history after living there for a time.’ Dr Thomas A Woods
‘Those things that add up to a feeling that a community is a special place, distinct from anywhere else’ The National Trust
Either the intrinsic character of a place, or the meaning people give to it, but, more often, a mixture of both. Some places are distinctive through their physical appearance, like the Old Man of Hoy; others are distinctive, but have value attached to them, like the white cliffs of Dover. A final element is our own experience of that place; if you had been desperately unhappy in central London, it might be that the sight of Trafalgar Square would reawaken a sense of misery in you.

Artists' books have employed a wide range of forms, including scrolls, fold-outs, concertinas or loose items contained in a box as well as bound printed sheet.
