Description

This limited-edition artist's book "Grief" contains 22 acrylic paintings on handmade paper that has been dyed with tea to appear aged. The book is hand-bound with wool yarn in the Coptic style. It was created by the artist in response to her mother's death. Words seemed totally inadequate at the time, so she painted how grief felt. The story begins with a single tear. More tears fall, pool, and eventually fill the frame. A (purposefully) too-long period of full-dark pages follow. Just when the dark seems overwhelming, a single star appears that shifts the viewer's perception of the darkness as an ocean-of-tears to a gentler dark of night-sky. Slowly, stars return. Clouds come, but then dissipate. A long-awaited dawn finally brings the promise of light.
