Ice books.
For these I crushed ice in a blender, then took paperback books, slightly dampened the cover and spine and then pressed the crushed ice over the books. Wrapped tightly in a plastic bag (to hold the ice in place) and put them in the freezer. After a day or so the crushed ice had frozen solid to the books. This created a a sculptural look to the books, and showed they weren’t in use, however if somebody picks one up they can open the book,crack the ice on the spine and still read the book (the pages are not frozen or damaged). I really like this and I think I am going to continue with this method for my final piece.
