Work on books: 2002 - 2013
Originally sparked after reading the book Fahrenheit 451 I started to work on books in 2002.
Over the years a onetime project has turned into an addiction.
Aside from the joy of finding and collecting discarded books, I feel as if we've become a creative team. First Attracted by their surfaces where light, water and time all provide marks of inspiration in me. I've gone further. I've become aware (books & I) are now competing with modern media, technology, and the disappearance of the handmade tradition. It's quite an uphill battle, and im not sure whos winning.
I tend to work on the end pages, where people look for the summary of the book. There’s no width of pages to scare anyone away an obviously a pictures worth a thousand words. People are busy these days and in an age of information overload I want to make my ideas accessible so I updated a format that’s conveyed information for thousands of years. Now they tell my story..
