Mysterious Book Art

This Book Sculpture was Made by an Anonymous Artist

This beautiful bird-inspired book sculpture is both impressive and mysterious. The artist behind this lovely shredded book art remains anonymous. This sculpture was delivered to a library in Edinburgh, with an equally mysterious note attached that talked about how people who don't use long sentences are more fun to talk to.

This is just the latest piece of art anonymously received in Edinburgh. Over a two year period 10 random and intriguing pieces of art have been sent out to book stores, libraries, museums and other locations. This stunning book-built bird's nest is just the latest art work from this talented unknown artist.

Sculptures really don't get more mysterious than this. Though the artist remains at large, these bookish sculptures are a welcome surprise.
