volatile actions

...................volatile actions - the text in this artists book clarifies a perspective of that most contentious of four letter words. The actions described can be volatile. The imagery adjacent to the text is multiple layers of relief prints building up a rich texture related to both the land and those who occupy the land. To open each book in the edition for the first time the reader has to literaly tear the pages. Each tear reveals text, image and pages, and each tear runs through the text.Symbolic of the fundamental premise that to enjoy the richness of life you need to accept the difficulties that come with it, the book cant be read unless the reader is prepared to tear the book. LOVE is a volatile action and will not compromise either in enjoying lifes fullness or accepting its pain.
