Claremont
Alexandra Chappell is Arts and Humanities Team Leader and Art Librarian at the Claremont Colleges Library. Alex has led several recent projects that encourage and support creative practice within the library. Her presentation will focus on two projects: 1) a collaboration between the library and a studio art class where the students’ final project is a site-specific art installation for the library that makes a connection between the tangible physical space of the library and the ephemeral digital resources we provide. 2) the library’s annual event whare donated old books and magazines have been used to create altered books, collage, zines, and most recently, LED-lit up cards using paper circuits and collage.
