Other Than Reading How Else Can Books Convey The Messages Contained Within Them?

Ryuta Iida Uses The Act Of Sculpture, Taking Each Page Of A Book And Carefully Placing Them In A Perfectly Symmetrical Fashion, Creating A Brand New Way To Read. He Both Destroys And Opens The Books, A Single Picture Displaying All The Pages, Making It Possible To Read All The Information Simultaneously. Once Cut From The Book, The Words Are Fragmentary Semiotics, Intermittent Symbols That Ensure The Message Conveyed Of The Book Is No Longer Important. Books Are Made Up Of Countless Words And Phrases And Reading Is A Process Of Decoding Meaning. It Is Only When These Semiotics Disappear And Reading Becomes Impossible That We Truly Realize The Depth Of Our Reliance On It. Transferring Words To A Different Space Represents A Leap Of Faith In Thinking, As We Take The Written Messages Revealed Through The Transparent Body Of The Bottle And Seek To Reconstruct The Book As It Originally Appeared.
