2021 Members' Showcase: Sabrena Johnson

We continue the 2021 Members' Showcase, featuring work from book artists here in the Southeast, with Sabrena Johnson.

Sabrena Johnson

Sabrena Johnson is the Conservation Librarian for Tulane University. Alongside in-house special and circulating collections conservation for the libraries, she experiments on her own collection to develop bindings that reflect the contents in a way that shows character with a bit of lateral thinking. Book arts provide a meditative outlet where each book becomes distinctive, a unique object in its own right that breaks the rules wherever possible while giving the best aesthetic fit for the volume. She also makes some very, very tiny blank books that you can wear!
