Artist book I made with handmade paper. The paper is made with cooked and shredded paper bags, and had coffee ground in it along with hardwood chips. The binding is Japanese stab with hemp thread. 

The stick is dipped in ink, to represent a pen.

One of two works commissioned by Robert Bolick, curator of Books on Books.

The Metamorphoses is Ovid’s epic poem about “bodies which have been transformed into shapes of different kinds.” With motifs of violence, punishment, reward, pathos, and lost speech dwelling within this classic tale, Ovid writes about human feelings in the face of the awful and the tender, the terrifying and beautiful, the violent and loving.
