Bound and Unbound 8 was juried by Bratislava, Slovakia-based altered book artist and illustrator, Isobelle Ouzman. Ouzman is widely known for her work on the covers of Alice with a Why by Anna James and The Whisperwicks series, published by Simon & Schuster. The exhibition is now on view at the I.D.
