The Library at Elsinore is the title of an installation work by Tom Phillips which will be the centrepiece of an exhibition at Shandy Hall opening on 21st September 2008. Also included in the exhibition will be treated skulls, works on the theme of books and texts and six new pages from Tom Phillips’s treated book A Humument. To learn more about these works go to the Online Resources links on the right. On this page you will be able to watch the making of new version of Page 62 from A Humument from start to finish. You can also see interpretations of Page 62 by Year 12 and 13 students from four different schools and these will also feature in the exhibition. Access earlier postings from the list on the right. You can also sign up for regular updates of new postings by subscribing to the RSS feed at the foot of the page.

Easingwold School


More pages arrived from Easingwold School on Friday evening. It seemed that a few of the students had looked very closely at A Humument and were working with motifs seen in the book. Other approaches were in evidence too. Christopher Palmer's ship is sailing right out of the page, and although its sails could suggest open books, there is no isolated text at all. Jess Luck and Chris Price each presented two, quite different pages. Francesca Inchboard's jigsaw page (above) is original and accomplished.

Thought id get the ball rolling and leave the first comment. Its amazing how people come up with such a variety of different ideas for the same page.

It would be interesting to hear what people think of each others work.

I tried to go for 2 very different approaches, one in a similar style to Tom Phillips the other in my own style using a method I felt represented me and was original, (Photoshop)
