About this work

Description

"In 2008 I responded to an open call for submissions – this time from artists Chris Taylor and John McDowell, who organize the annual Leeds Contemporary Artists' Book Fair. They sought book art that investigated the nature of the book form itself, and – as I had exhibited relatively little at that point – I was keen to submit something. Ultimately, I created a 'silent' issue – the pages and the action they carry are completely without text. While this began as a pragmatic decision (the preparatory process of writing takes far longer for me than the drawing) it resulted in probably the most visually playful edition to that point. The book, the page and the spreads act as doorways, windows, places of acrobatic transition."--From author's website. http://ensixteeneditions.blogspot.com/2010/07/ensixteen-editions-books-in-single.html
