Why say it again?

Bodman, Sarah L.

Abstract

Artists' book screenprinted with a clear water-based varnish, the stencils made from dipping glasses and cups into ink to make a mark, just as you would if you put a glass or cup onto a table. The marks, like poison are barely discernible. The handwritten, colour appointments are in watercolour pencil, once the job is done, the colourful notes can be wiped away, leaving only the first ‘date’ in pencil.

Edition of 20, September 2013. 14 x 14 cm. Bound in charcoal grey bookcloth with hand-tooled title and ribbon ties by Rachel James of Bristol Bound Bookbinders.
