THANK-YOU

 

Thank-you to Jess Cole, Assistant Curator, Prints and Drawings, at NGV, and NGV Melbourne, for the amazing opportunity to chat about our work with you as part of your live in-studio artist visits.

You can watch the full interview on the @NGVmelbourne IGTV channel or on their Live in-studio artist visit channel on their site.

We had an absolute ball talking about artists’ books, animals, and circular walks in stage IV, on screen, in REEL, and off screen, in our day to day. We enjoyed looking back at earlier works, like our artists’ book, The Company You Keep (2016), in your collection, and other prints and projects that flowed since.

Thank-you. Thank-you, everyone, for your lovely feedback.

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.
