This piece transforms a book on graphic design into a dense, layered collage excavated directly from its pages. By cutting through the printed material, the work reveals a vibrant cross-section of illustrations, typography, and visual fragments that were originally scattered throughout the book. The carved window creates a frame within a frame, drawing the viewer into a compressed world of competing images, allowing the book’s own visual excess to resurface as a single, chaotic tableau.

In Commercial Illustrations, the act of carving becomes a way to reorganize and reinterpret the visual language of mass culture. The book shifts from reference material to sculptural object, revealing an internal world shaped entirely by what was already printed and waiting beneath the surface.
