Book Description then:now takes close ups from offset prints from imagery created in response to last year’s theme of intersect and combines these with pairs of offset words. A smaller book is inserted within the larger book to add an additional element of offset. The smaller book structure is cut up and folded in such a way as to offset the imagery even more. Media Used Digital prints on Bockingford paper based on original screenprinted imagery

Emma is a co-curator of Ebb and Flow 2015 and a founder member of we love your books. She is a book artist, printmaker and lecturer. She loves colour and circles and her books often tackle personal and tricky subjects. Her work can be found online and in a variety of collections. Emma’s book was created using wooden letterpress with digital implementation at the final stage. Her words explore the ebb and flow of emotions around the topics of depression, anxiety and fear. It is a physical attempt to make the positives outweigh the negatives though the use of pattern, colour and cropping.

Final badge sets for The Salon project organised by EC Arts. I was one of the exhibiting artists – October 2013. The imagery is based on close ups of items left behind in an old hairdressers.These were actual objects and pieces of the infrastructure – walls, floors and other surfaces. Much of the work was based on a sense of 'wabi sabi' – the erosion of surfaces and added accretions.
