2017
Of Water in the Woods is a unique book made for the 2017 BookOpolis exhibition themed Dream A Book. I have had a recurring dream which shifts several times from a raging, flooding grove in the woods where I walked with a friend to another segment where I was swimming in a clear stream alongside an alligator. My companions and I are not afraid throughout this dream. The book is painted panels with a couple of loose, lacy pages alluding to the dream state. Its covers have a bit of hand cut trees for some see through areas and fold to enclose the inside panels like a box.
Acrylic on Arches Cover, milk paint on book board – sanded and waxed, lace paper + some mystery papers
