Some personal favourite pages from my sketchbook for my H.G Wells-inspired tunnel book, "Man":

bookworks
This is a book that I made. It is called "Man", and it is inspired by The Time Machine by H.G Wells:
The plate on the cover is made of copper, with the text sandblasted on. All the pages are made of card and the visuals made with card and ink. It is a tunnel book which needs to be opened up fully and looked through like a window to be read in its entirety.
The text is taken from Norman and Jeanne MacKenzie's The Time Traveller: The Life of H.G Wells and reads "Man is only temporarily dominant on a planet which is itself doomed." The visuals on each page represent a different era in time, beginning in 1895 and ending with a representation of the Earth in its final days.
