About this work

Description

"dogtown is a groundbreaking collaborative artbook between Beth Hopkins and Andrew Spragg. It has been painstakingly constructed from scraps of material, stuck and stitched together as though a world is being formed or held together by that production. The language is a fragile and distressed lyric, and the question of how to survive the dissonance permeates the environment. This erratic language is sewn into the cloth, seemingly controlled, but when given access to what's beneath, we find flamboyant and elaborate loops, an indecipherable language, an excessive encounter with materiality."--From publisher's website. https://litmuspublishing.co.uk/Shop/978-0-9927072-8-6

"Dogtown is a book created in collaboration with poet Andy Spragg, published by Litmus Press. It was written and stitched together throughout 2018. It was a process of fast writing and slow reading by stitch, experimenting with the shape of words and unpicking language."--From artist's website. https://bethhopkins.weebly.com/dogtown.html
