There would be a shelf kept in the corner of your house compiled with many old and untouched books that would have collected dust over them and you would not have even bothered to read them at least once in a blue moon. This is a case with almost everybody. But thanks to some artists who thought out of the box and instead of keeping them on the shelves for years or throwing them in the bins, they carved beautiful pieces of art out of it.
With a bit of creative and innovative thinking, and of course by recycling, you can create wonderful art pieces out of these unused and untouched books. Surely you would be thinking that books are meant to be read and gain knowledge out of it, but what knowledge is it providing you by sticking to that dusty shelf since years? We often hear about recycling paper, plastic and many more, then why not books? Just by doing such creative art works you can take a step further in erasing the line between objects, sculptures and photography. Moreover with the increasing use of E-Books now days, you would definitely be losing interest in these hard bound books. So, we are left with the last option of recycling- ‘Think Big, Think Innovative’.
With the pictures shown below, we are sure you would definitely gain interest in creating one such beautiful art piece:
Enjoyed? Now spread those dusty books on the floor and start designing and recycling!

This takes recycling to a whole new level. Some of these designs must have taken ages. I wish I was as creative with some old bits and bobs I have lying around.
These are truly amazing. I like the tie one the most.
wow
If my moms sees that she’ll go crazy, she taught me since childhood that books need to be respected, I ca never throw away a book or mistreat it, it was like a human being… Though I find what you did a cool art…
Some of these art pieces are really creative. Now I know what to do with my old books, LOL.
Wow, creative. Kinda makes me want to try it…
More I surf the net and more I realize that the human imagination has no limits.
Greetings
P.S. I found you stumbling
On the one hand I applaud and am amazed by the art. On the other hand the book worm in my is dying a slow miserable death at all the mutilated books.
Artistic Activism in there – I love it – change the world with this kind of thinking and we will be OK – Hey I know we are ok!
These are fantastic! I love both the wild creativity and the repurposing aspect. Who says no on has any use for printed books anymore? ‘-)
I am just amazed man, what terrific designs carved out of books! I just loved it!
