We
make artists' books, we make all sorts of things, and most usually
we make things on paper. More often than not, we collaborate, and
more often than not, we favour evenings over mornings (though as of
late the reverse is true). One of us favours collage and the other
favours watercolour, and we enjoy being able to share our work with
you here.
We are besotted with paper for its adaptable, foldable, cut-able,
concealable, revealing nature. From carefully-constructed limited
edition artists' books to prints, zines, postcard collages and other
small projects, the animal is ever present and easily detectable,
the centre of our paper stage. Hard to miss, over here and over there,
the animal runs up hills, scales rooftops, and passes through a scene
new or more familiar. For us, the animal is there to question our
very behaviour, those moral principles one governs the self by, and
to explore the relationship with the natural world.
Created
chiefly from our home-based studio in Melbourne, Australia, we hope
you enjoy what you find here and we thank-you for stopping by. Do
come again soon.
Be well,
Gracia & Louise
