Abstract

The form and structure are arranged with reference to Medieval Books of Hours and the book is divided into seven intervals with a different poetic text. Olsen’s intertextual poem offers a series of secular meditations for our fossil fuel era that are interrupted and playfully disrupted by traces of other books, bodies, readers and related found materials. The bookwork is produced as a sewn handmade edition of twelve. It is bound with covered boards on stubs and has a semi-rigid case binding and fabric outer covering. It includes a number of handprinted elements and foldout sections produced with a variety of hand and digital processes.
