Artist's / designer's statements
I have designed and created an artist's book in which the dynamics of
the book supports the content. The cover of my book is in the shape of a
large, 3 dimensional zip, which separates from the bottom part, exposing
a strip of paper with small drawings and annotated writing. The drawings
is a timeline of the development the bow and arrow. These drawings of
this seemingly simple weapon (advancing as time goes by) is supported
by the zip in a manner that the Zip can be seen as a war tank, a large, very
dangerous, weapon.
