Description
"Threshold explores states that exist at the boundaries of consciousness, where dream and reality intermingle. Five booklets - sleep paralysis, hypnagogia, fugue, reverie, lucid dream - visually depict these dissociative experiences, in which the mind and body are out of sync, awareness is disjointed, or wakefulness and sleep overlap. Each booklet is created from a single sheet of handmade paper, and unfolds to reveal imagery on the interior. The set is held in the pockets of an accordion book structure with translucent acrylic covers, and includes a sixth booklet containing letterpress-printed definitions of the different liminal states. The paper was made from abaca and flax, overbeaten for translucency, and the imagery was created with ink, gouache, colored pencil, pochoir, burning, cutting, and hole punching."-- Artist website (viewed July 18, 2022)
