Horrible Revelations is a handmade book from a series crafted by April Marten. Marten, a visual artist expresses her thoughts of world and religious dilemmas through performance art and sculpture.. The book is binded by backing and papers and a Coptic stitch. A Holy Bible was re-purposed as it was deconstructed and is used for the front and back cover. It’s recognizable font is shown on the cover, and some letters appear to be blacked out. Replacing them are beads of the letter “R”. This presents a new title– Horrible Revelation. Revelation is underneath and is a clipping from the Bible as well. Foreshadowing what is to come in the rest of the book, as it is a series of clippings and images.
