Artist Statement:
I initially discovered the flower fold book while I was teaching book arts and printmaking to after school program students. I quickly found myself fascinated by the book鈥檚 unassuming yet expansive qualities. When closed, the book appears to be simply square. By alternating the direction that each page opens, the flower fold book adopts sculptural qualities. The book is composed of monoprints, Suminagashi marbling and collage.听

I sourced the lines in the poem from typography magazines.听
It is easy to be tiresome, boring, joyless
Just shout
Fun鈥himsy鈥nd risk. 100% assurance
You鈥檒l hear complaints
Nobody ever called it a pleasure
They鈥檇 rather be
Whatever you do, do with all your might
Don鈥檛 forget why
Go the distance for you.
