(W)HERE?

This text-driven book uses a wordplay on the Buddhist notion that there is no 'there' – only a 'here.' Whenever one gets 'there' one is actually 'here.' There is no 'here' there and no 'there' here. Tomato, potato..., either, neither...

5.75 x 3.75 inches (14.5 x 9.5 cm) closed, extends to 24.5 x 15.5 inches (62.25 x 39.5 cm). Letterpress printed on 100% rag paper. Bound in paper-covered boards. Signed and numbered; edition of 25.

My artist books, broadsides, and loose-leaf editions are published in very small numbers, as low as five. All are hand-printed and hand-bound (in the case of books) by me, all are signed and numbered. While I am trying to be perfect, I am human, not a machine. Some variations in the editioned work are to be expected due to the processes, materials, and the artist’s change of mind. It is exactly what makes the work collectible: each piece is an original work of art. The pieces employ printmaking like original etchings, woodcuts, carborundum, screen prints, monotype, monoprint, and letterpress. Rarely is any part produced using digital methods, and if so it is clearly indicated, and only when no other options were available.
