WEIRD FORMAT WEDNESDAY: Sweet Grass : My Place

Printmaker and book artist CB Sherlock created Sweet Grass : My Place in 2010 in Minneapolis, MN.  Sherlock creates small edition artist books and one of a kind artwork.  The major theme in her work is the connectedness of humanity and the fibers that link us all together.  Her work is about the similarities among people rather than the differences.

“Sweet Grass was written after many years of reflecting on belonging to the place our family visits every summer.  In 2010, it was printed on handmade Sekishu paper…the accordion structure was bound with grass stalks with hand painted images”

The artist book has letterpress printed text and is housed in a folded vellum box.
