Statement
I have made books for a number of years as part of an ongoing concern with narrative art and with the diverse potentials within image/text combinations. Gradually, books have become my major concern; combining interests in print, typography and narrative poetry and a preference for the intimate and revelatory slow turn of the page over the capacious arena of the gallery.
I believe in the artist having control over each element of book production; that the author should also be typesetter and binder.
I write short poetic statement, I find texts or discover links between images; the books are vehicles for these simple narratives.
