Single Sheet of Paper Books

Aug 5

A design for making a book by folding and cutting a single sheet of paper came my way. I liked the idea of it. I had made photographs of the dismantling of a room my “Art Stories” photographs were taken in. The little book seemed just the right venue for Taking It Down.

At that time I often made photographs at the breakfast table. I used some of them to design a second book, Breakfast. A third book was of images I made at an exhibition, A Little Calder.

I made a fourth book by scanning a group of drawings, reducing their size and printing them on Johannot paper to make an untitled book.

This is an image of the open page showing the folds and the cut.

All of these books are made in an edition of 10. 4.25 x 5.5 inches. Three are archival inkjet prints on matte white inkjet paper. The fourth, a drawing book, is of archival inkjet prints on Johannot paper. 2017.
