breathtaking book carving by Brian Dettmer (reblog)

Check out what Brian Dettmer can do with a book.

"Dettmer creates his masterpieces by bending the book into an position that fans out the pages to some extent, then he cuts away parts of each page one at a time to reveal the hidden artwork within. It's kind of like an X-ray that makes you a voyeur looking inside the book without actually opening it. Some of his more recent work combines several books glued together, often multiple volumes of a set to provide a sense of continuity across the piece....Dettmer uses knives, tweezers and surgical tools to create his art, along with what must be a stunning amount of patience and skill. The amazing results speak for themselves." 

Can you imagine how long this takes? The detail in his cuts are amazing considering how thin the pages really are. WOW!
