CONNECTING THREADS

 

Recently landed: Connecting threads

Mind they don’t tangle! Mind they don’t snag! Loose threads aplenty! In the lead up to our stall at the eleventh NGV Melbourne Art Book Fair, we have been cutting, stitching, scoring, folding, signing, trimming, to trim again, and stacking our new artists’ book, Restoring corridors, taken up again, in readiness for you to unzip. We have been cautiously working in the wings of our paper theatre, How will they know there’s no-one left, and listing everything on our site, mindful, hopeful, that nothing from one pile has joined the cast of another. And folding our new zine, (Imagined) field notes, which sprung from this year’s World Book Night (WBN), and is currently on display at the Bower Ashton Library until Wednesday 30th of July, in a forest of submitted trees from near every pocket of the world.

Continuing reading on Marginalia.

I have been collaborating with Louise Jennison since 1999, making artists’ books, collages, large-scale installations, prints, drawings, zines, and various tales. Besotted still, it appears, with paper for its adaptable, concealable, revealing nature, we use an armoury of play, the poetic and familiar too, with the intention of luring you into our A(rtists’ books) to Z(ines).

As artists and wildlife carers, our practice frequently concerns the natural world, addressing themes of conservation and biodiversity. Our home-based studio is also home to our wildlife shelter, Tiny but Wild.

I collage with words about dance for Fjord Review.
