Notes:
Prospectus: "Marc Quinn's Thames River water atlas, created for Ivorypress by hand in his London studio, is an edition of four unique artist books. Hand printed onto a long strip of canvas, upon which an image of a seascape has been printed, Quinn covers this pixelated abstracted image of nature with repeated layers of aeronautical aluminium tape and spray paint applied through stencils. Using found coral, silicone rubber tape and sanding disc pads as stencils, several layers of paint are built up onto the surface of the image and canvas, reminiscent of each seascape's fluid surface or the river's depths; shadows of detritus and the objects we discard."--Leaf 8
