COLLECTION BOUND

Recently landed: Collection bound

A new article on Marginalia takes a look at With wings outstretched and quivering and Something reverberated.

Though these two artists’ books can make a line from cover to cover, we feel they can be entered at any point the reader chooses. They can be folded by the double spread, they can be coiled into a spiky circle or a star, depending upon your point of view. These ‘of paper, ink, and glue’ ecosystems, to us, are as cyclical as the earth itself, a circulation of experiences growing on the page. They are our celebration of the green spaces that give us solace. They are a part of our own act of reciprocity for that which continues to restore us.
