Tuscaloosa, Alabama:: Red Hydra Press,, 2009.. Edition of 30. 16 x 24" single sheet. Letterpress printed in two colors on dampened Somerset printmaking paper. Text in English and Spanish. Illustrations by Pollyanna Fernández Fernández. The lively translation is by Maria Vargas. This broadside combines a poem by Wisconsin poet, Mary Wehner, a colored lithograph print by Cuban artist, Pollyanna Fernández Fernández, and the printing and typographic design of Steve Miller. Red Hydra Press: "[Broken Shells at Dusk] with evocative words by the Wisconsin poet Mary Wehner, was designed and letterpress-printed in two colors by Steve Miller in both English and Spanish. "After words and titles were printed, the sheets were hand-carried to Havana, Cuba. At Taller Experimental de Gráfica a multi-colored stone lithograph was printed by the artist Pollyanna Fernández Fernández. This striking image partly invades the typography. The sheets were then hand-carried back on the airplane to Alabama. Signed by both author and artist, each copy is marked with the chop of the Taller (the colophon is on the back of the sheet, with signatures on the front).
