Jumbo Press - The Scissors Book
The Scissors Book is a re-edited artist’s edition of William Ludlum’s 1928 manual on cutting and composition. Reimagined as a double concertina with a cut-out section, the book transforms a practical guide into an interactive object. One that can be unfolded, handled, and reshaped by the reader.
Printed in two colours on recycled paper with a thermographic silver cover, this edition explores the tactile and participatory qualities of print itself.

• Thermographic silver cover
