Cacophony

Sounds are unseen, they can be heard but not viewed. Five interwoven pages fold flat, yet spring open to a visual uproar of sounds... sounds from nature, wild beasts, machines, weather, music, excitement, frustration, and life itself. Racing across intersecting surfaces and erupting from interior chambers--whether seen from the top, bottom, front, back, sides, or through viewing ports--a wide-ranging cacophony of sound expressions emerges in visual form. The kaleidoscope presentation begs to be picked up, unfolded, turned, twisted, tumbled, and contorted in every way to explore the many nooks, crannies, and hidden crevices. Each perspective presents additional words, resulting in a cacophony of imaginative sounds.

Cacophony won the Merit Award, 9th Annual Book as Art Show, Decatur Arts Alliance, Decatur, Georgia and was Finalist, 2021 Meggendorfer Artist Book Prize, Movable Book Society. Cacophony is laser printed, laser-cut and hand-assembled, 10" x 8", opens to 15" long. Open edition, $265.
