On Judgment: The Book of Bullypaper, ink 5.75 x 4.625 x 0.5 closed edition size: 17 © 2012 $185Created for An Inventory of Al-Mutanabbi Street, a global book arts’ response to the car bombing of Al-Mutanabbi Street in Baghdad on March 5, 2007. In designing the book I wanted aspects of the form to communicate aspects of the complexity of the content, that are not overtly stated in the text. I chose wood relief because I wanted the look of the pages to have a hand-printed aesthetic to reflect the long history of books, the printed word, and the the street itself.
