[Camden, ME], 2011. Unique artist's book, all on pink, tangerine, grey and black Canson Acid-free paper, with cut-outs, collages, and pen and ink illustrations. Page size: 12-1/2 x 4-7/8 inches; 16pp. Bound by the artist: hand-sewn with black thread in grey wrappers with pink paper collage, cut-out and black pen and ink drawings and embellished hand-lettered title. While this book is without text, the viewer finds a story within. Opened vertically, there is the sense of diving down deep into the TANGERINE SEA. With cutouts and arabesques in black ink and tiny strange creatures, black paper collages, on the tangerine ground, the depths were never as inviting. Are those eyes peering out of the blackness? Vaguely surreal, the book is totally captivating using repeating forms / lines in cutout or collage contrasting with black ink or collage. Worth the dive!
