Minutes: Dance Steps for the Beleagueredink, paper, book cloth and binder’s board 12 x 9 x 0.5 edition size: 36 © 2012 $700Minutes depicts a certain experience — the meeting in the workplace and academia. Inspiration for the book came from How to Know Fresh-Water Algae by G.W. Prescott, The Biggle Farm Library, The Shepherd’s Manual by Henry Stewart, The Journal of Musculoskeletal Pain, the on-line journal Applied Animal Behavior Science and other texts about honey bee communication, slime mold behavior and much more. This is a letterpress printed accordion book made during a residency at Asheville Bookworks in 2012. Sarah Smith produces books and broadsides in the realm of nonsense and absurdity. She is currently coordinator of the Book Arts Workshop at Dartmouth College, in Hanover NH. |
