Book paintings.

We’re not quite sure if you’d call what artist Ekaterina Panikanova creates painting, collage or installation, but there’s no questioning the fact that it’s exploding with awesomeness. The Russian lass has found a new use for crumbly old books and documents aside from sitting dustily on the mantelpiece making us feel smart: she arranges them into large-scale formations and paints across them like a giant, textured canvas.

If your inner art aficionado and book nerd are currently jumping for joy, just wait until you see the rest of her work over here- http://www.ekaterinapanikanova.com/errata-corrige/
