2009–2013
A series of digital prints to share and download, to celebrate the new year
A series of prints, especially for you, those near and those dear, to share and download. Sent to newsletter subscribers, twitter followers, facebook friends, instagram pals, and blog readers to download, print, and pin to a wall or prop on a shelf. Our New Year’s treat for those seeking to usher in a brand new year of harmony and peace. For all of you, for whatever the reason. Our thank-you for your support, sharing in our exhibition joys, coming along to openings, friendly grins, purchasing zines and artwork; for little things and big. It is for snail mail received, and for taking an interest in the things we make for it all means a tremendous lot.
To print on an A5 (210 X 148mm) piece of paper (or larger, if desired).
For 2015, we created an Advent Calendar for instagram.

To good year’s end
2012
Six collaborative collages created especially for Milly Sleeping to ring in the New Year
December, 2012
Days and nights, a succession of them, to be spent as one chooses. In bright and noisy company. In the darkened cinema hush. In quiet seclusion. On a long walk. With purpose or ambling. Dreaming of the future.

Celebration
2012
Ten collaborative collages created especially for le projet d’amour to celebrate the publication of Hila Shachar’s book Cultural Afterlives and Screen Adaptations of Classic Literature: Wuthering Heights and Company published by Palgrave Macmillan
August, 2012
Featuring Kira Abricossova and a gazelle by the human name of ‘Aden’ on board the Maloja in September 1938 (photographed by Patricia Mary Cape, in the collection of the National Library of Australia). There are dancers in a cabin, as photographed by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. Ladies taking tea outdoors, a table of silver tea things upon a crocheted cloth before them. A table laden, always must it be laden, with cakes for the sharing. And with people. Plenty of people, for we always feel like Hila is talking to each of us, directly, when we read her words on le projet d’amour, in this space she has carved out, so full of conversation and ideas offered freely. We have created ten collaborative collages with a tilt towards celebration. Ten collages for you, Hila, to say, in our way, congratulations on your book being both complete and published. Congratulations on it being a thing that in other hands it will rest and come alive both at one time. A book is a tremendous gateway to thoughts and actions and greatness, and you, dear friend, you’ve written one.

It could be me but it’s actually Paul Paper
2009
Digital collage created especially for Could be me online project,
September, 2009
Could be me is a project exploring possibility of one artist occupying another’s space. It is a visual adventure and an interpretation of the same sentence by different artists worldwide.
Paul Paper (Vilnius, Lithuania)
Could be me is sadly no longer available to view online.
Gracia Haby and Louise Jennison are the dynamic duo known officially as Gracia & Louise. They are an art team based in Melbourne Australia who make amazing things on paper… books, collages, lithographs, zines, you name it. When I found them, I got that feeling that I always hope for — a cheek-flushing rush of inspiration followed by a little soul-crushing jealousy. And then, I saw that they had a piece in Could Be Me, a project that I was totally smitten with a few months back, and I knew it was true love.
