Description:15 leaves. Edition 9 of 25. Custom case containing pamphlet bound book with black Japanese paper enclosing 12 loose engraved prints. Printed in Mexico City in the summer of 2000. The aquatints were printed by Rene Augustin Sierra, Ramon Duran and Javier Cabrera at Artegrafias Limitadas S.A. and the screen printing was done at Jan Hendrix's studio. This book is a republished edition from a hard bound version which the Center of Book Arts also own. See call number FA.B1.0021. ;The conception of the book and its form is derived from a personal diary where the prints depict fragments of the text from the diary that inspired its creation. The artist suggests that the reader contemplate the stroke and movement of the fragments rather than interpret the text.
