Red Hot Fibre

Booked - an exhibition of paper art and bookbinding by fourteen of the artists and volunteers involved in the Botanical Book project. The exhibition was held in JASU Gallery Redcliffe in August 2000. The aim of the exhibition was to provide concrete examples of the type of art works potentially generated by the project and to celebrate the beginning of stage two of the Botanical Book project.

The Booked Exhibition was intended as a small celebration of the halfway mark of the Botanical Book Project and also as a promotional opportunity for Stage 2. Artists and volunteers involved in the project up to that point were invited to exhibit hand made paper; hand made books or other works on paper for an exhibition in Redcliffe.

Fourteen artists exhibited 41 works and generated coverage in the local media prior to the commencement of book binding and printing workshops in Redcliffe.
