Recently landed: More than fair, for sure

Thank-you to everyone who swung by our stall at the eleventh NGV Melbourne Art Book Fair, held, as ever, in the majesty that is the bewitching Great Hall. We so enjoyed seeing you peep at our peepshow book, How will they know there’s no-one left; chatting about bookbinding techniques, glue drying times, and paper stock; about wildlife, winged and tailed, and marvellous in every way; about the importance of green corridors, acting upon nightmares, and making zines of your own about something important to and intrinsically you.

Continuing reading on Marginalia.

As the red curtain fell away, we invited readers at the fair to peep through the central hole only to find the stage to be empty, and the set abandoned.

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.
