Book Pickings is a fantastic installation currently up in the New York Public Library, a collaboration between three past CreativeMornings speakers: Maria Popova, Kelli Anderson, and Debbie Millman.
Featuring four reading lists chosen by Maria, the installation contains books on wisdom on writing, great reads about New York City, heart-and brain-stirring books on pets and animals, and timeless treats for young readers. Each book is lovingly hand-cut from paper by the über-talented Kelli and her team, and the writing is all lettered by the always amazing Debbie.
Jacob Krupnick (another CM speaker!) of Wild Combination (the team behind Girl Walk // All Day) photographed the process and filmed this beautiful timelapse of the assembly.
