Unfurl Unfold: the touch of a leaf, the page in a book felt, 2021

and partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency
Mesmerized by vines and their steadfast embrace of all that they encounter, Beaubien has created an artist book in which the reading experience mimics the movements of a growing vine. Gatefolds allow the reader to expand the dimensions of the book while the turning of pages reveal inclusions that feature plant-inspired poetry and clues to the many horticulture-related books visually referenced throughout the book. Imagery in this book include cut-up and woven photographs of plant matter, still lifes featuring books from the Beaubien’s personal library, and documentation of her immersive art installations.
Through combining screenprinting and inkjet printing, the artist was liberated from the expectations of conventional photography. Beaubien dissected her compositions, at times literally peeling layers of a photograph into distinct color fields, and at times rebuilding new fantastical compositions and color palettes. This visceral book has been assembled for aesthetic pleasure as well as to reflect on how gardens and libraries portray time, and examine how plant life, be it immaculately tended or untamed growth, is integrated into all aspects of life.
BOOK DETAILS. 10 x 13 inches Edition of 25 Hand-sewn French link stitch binding with paracord
