I plan on collecting books that have been disposed of for one reason or another. I plan on having the audience write inside the books and somehow incorporate something of their personal life into this project. I am not sure what to do at the end of the project with this. Maybe I could burn them or choose to display them in the library by hanging the pages up or by leaving the books to be reach whenever in a specific area.
I was also thinking about creating a mat or rug built by the books covers written by renowned authors. This would touch on hot topics on our campus and throughout the nations today. Hopefully it will further conversations around the tension we have learned to coexist in.
I wonder if you should focus on diary or memoir type books or some other types of books that address personal stories.
