Andrew Huot G44: Bookworks – Floating Panel Panorama
$80 G44 members / $90 non-members
Join us in making an innovative structure for holding and display your photographs. The floating panel book, or panel panorama, is a book structure invented by book artist Hedi Kyle and is based on an accordion book. It has hinged panels that display flat to the viewer when the book is open. These panels swivel and can show a set of images both on the front and back of the structure.
