I Am, 2023

Artist book bound using linen thread and Keith Smith’s Greek Sewing pattern. Lenox paper, Iridescent mylar, hand-set metal type, polymer plate

Edition of 3.

I am is an artist book inspired by the calm that exists under the turbulence of waves. Maybe you’ve had the pleasure of being deep under the waves and watching the churning above, from the ease below. I made this after I walked the Camino Frances, using leftover papers from other projects. The text reconciles what the papers brought to the project with the thoughts that were going through my head in the summer of 2023.
