Book
From Dionysus to Florence Nightingale / tunnel book images & text by James MacSwain.
”The tunnel book is not a particularly well known book form. Their construction was inspired by Baroque theatrical stage sets that used the proscenium opening as a frame to present fantastical plots by mythological characters and events. Tunnel books represent an unique meshing of narrative meaning with three-dimensional art. James MacSwain has been making these beautiful books for years and in this new publication he presents five of his books with a narrative written for each one.”--http://www.perroverlag.com/newcatalogue.html (retrieved February 4, 2016)
