Mammals by James Allen - SOLDMammals is a book excavation of the Golden Pocket Guide of the same name. In creating the work I have cut away to reveal the content of the book as it was originally bound. None of the images have been moved or added. The resulting relief sculpture includes many portraits of familiar furry friends. Must see TV! Oregon Art Beat, a weekly arts program on Oregon Public Broadcasting, has a fascinating segment about James Allen and his book excavations.
