OVER GROOVES OF YEW; OVER SPIKES OF LEAF

 

Recently landed: Over grooves of yew; over spikes of leaf

Installed in the gallery last week, Can we dream it?, our unique state artists’ book, is 9.6 metres in length. Beneath the extended pages, we placed the organic elements of exploration, which atop the dark ground made every varied hole a visible portal. Stitched together, these white, irregular panels reveal the togetherness of the book, and its organic nature. It can take on multiple shapes, as it extends, growing into the space provided and possibly beyond. What is it like to be a lichen?

Continuing reading on Marginalia.

In the blur, the magnificent blur, in which all things collide and in doing so form a new, ever moving shape, our newest artists’ book has been unfurled at WAMA, the National Centre for Environmental Art.

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.
