This precious 14 x12" Platinum Series volume is a true livre d'artiste, as the introduction and all of the accompanying poems were written by the artist herself.

Hand coated platinum prints by Stan Klimek. Paper by Twinrocker. Hand binding by Sarah Creighton. Letterpress printing by Michael Russem."
