Description
"A '
fond
'
is
a
group
of
archival
documents
organically
accumulated
by a
person
or
institution.
This
book
has been
designed
and
letterpress-printed
[and
bound
in a
drum
leaf

in
2012
in
Brighton
,
UK
on
Zerkall
paper.
The

Adobe

Artist's
statement
: "
Fond
is
an
investigation
of
memory
and
archive
as
manifested
by the
small
,
valueless
objects
that
individuals
collect
and
preserve.
These
objects
,
casually
assembled
over
the
course
of
years
,
serve
as an
information
retrieval
system
and an
emotional
bank.
A
fond
is
a
collection
of
documents
organically
accumulated
by a
person
or
institution.
Using
halftone
photographs
,
color
silhouettes
, and a
winding
rope
of
text
,
I
constructed
a
history
of
several
objects.
I
produced
Fond
over
the
course
of
2011-2012
while
I
moved
from
Upstate
New
York
to
Alabama
and
finally
to the
United
Kingdom."--Vamp
