Apparently, Brian Dettmer isn’t the only über-talented sculptor cutting into books. Guy Laramee, an interdisciplinary artist, is best known for transforming the edges of vintage dictionaries, hardbacks, and encyclopedias into meticulously detailed landscapes with plateaus, temples, mountains, and valleys. WTF, right?!

I’m loving the sculptures. I wonder what technology was created to get such amazing detail.
Literature displayed as a visual art. Awesome.
