A Tension 2 Detail
Author: C.K. Wilde
Edition: 1
Year: 1997
This one of a kind book has the subtitle "Examples of exaltation of abnormality". Playful and intricate collages weave in through textual reference provided by a discarded dictionary on grey Loktha. The book's binding is called a sprung accordion guard, a single sheet of Loktha was folded over and joined at the fore edge after being sewed onto the Kenaf guard with linen thread. The guard was then sewn with silk suture thread hiding the sewing of the signatures. The spine is exposed up to the hinge point and the boards are covered with Loation iridescent burgundy silk. A facimile edition of 6 was made and given away for the most part.
This book can be read at the Boston Athenaeum, MA.
