THE POOL OF TEARS

By Anna Hellsgård & Christian Gfeller

 

This is the second book in the series of "Alice in Wonderland" unique books.

The first book "Down the Rabbit Hole" is in the collection of Stanford Universtity Fine Art Library.

The book is a mise-en-abyme of media and techniques. The raw materials go through several medial iterations and transpositions, until the final result is

achieved—a unique work that makes it hard to pinpoint one specific technique, instead highlighting the trademark edgy yet harmonious mood of the final

artist's book, which becomes a witness to its own genesis as well as an art object in itself.

Unique silkscreen book, hard cover with bronz embossing, 46 x 33 cm, 32 pages.
