I don't know if I've mentioned I'm signed up to take part in a project called 'Jazzcakes100:Postcards'
The basic idea is 100 artists, each assigned a number 1- 100 each has to design a piece of work within the confines of a postcard (6x4 inch) and base the work around the assigned number.
I was given number 4.
I was thinking about the fact the work is relating to postcards,travel,etc and decided to look at my own photos of my past trips around the world. I visited Utah about 2 years ago and took some great photos of the landscape there and had always intended to us them within my print work. I finally found an opportunity.
The book I designed consists of 4 photos, taken over 4 days during my time in Utah.
I decided an artist book would be the perfect way to tackle this project due to the size limits and it's also good way to add a narrative to the work. The book is about travel and taking a journey while immersing ones self within an alien environment while trying to learn and live within a foreign community which is not always easy to understand.
