Chrysalis

Description: Based in Oakland, California, book artist Julie Chen creates spectacular artists’ books at her studio, Flying Fish Press. The University owns several of her books, including Chrysalis, which takes the form of a caterpillar inside a chrysalis when closed, and opens into a beautiful, butterfly-like form. Chrysalis, like all artists’ books, calls into question what makes an object a book, and uses the language of books to share its message and meaning with those who experience it. --University Library
