Flight Patterns

– Out of Print –

After lively discussion and analysis of the nature of flight, we observed that flight requires movement, a metamorphosis that involves freedom and risk. Ten stories were generated with this concept in mind. Images were developed with the goal of creating a little something to lift off the page. Connective tissue, such as birds flying throughout, stitch the stories together. The lightweight Japanese mingei paper changes from translucent to opaque black evoking the metamorphosis of the sky. The laced paper binding commingles glint and opacity and feels light in the hand, as if you could uncouple the wings and launch it. Edition size, 80 copies. Size: 6.75 x 11″, with 90 pages.
