Text paper is Sekishu Gampi mounted on a carrier sheet of Shiramine. The 14 pt univers type was cast by Ed Rayher of Swamp Press. The polymer plates were produced by Box Car Press. Text & images were printed on a Vandercook by Karen Randall at Wild Carrot Letterpress.
Elizabeth Willis' poetry has been described as hauntingly luminous, hermetic, gorgeous, surprising, and an evocative blend of the lyrical and abstract. The accompanying digital collages are one reader's response to the poems in all their painterly, historic, and scientific evocations. Created digitally, converted photo-chemically, and printed mechanically from 4 color polymer plates on Japanese paper.
