Artist Isobelle Ouzman’s Creates Amazing Altered Books with Fairytale Scenes Inside

Isobelle Ouzman transforms old, mass-produced books into intricate paper sculptures of enchanting forests and meadows, often featuring animals like hares or foxes.

Based in Bratislava, she selects books based on size, depth, and paper texture, needing to feel them to envision her next piece. Her process of carving and drawing, which shapes these quiet, mystical scenes, can take from three weeks to three months to complete.
