About The Artwork
Rather than a single sheet book binding, as all past projects have been (including NN), this is a frontal layout of one game. This "binding", if you will, is a tete-beche (from the French, meaning head to tail). One side of the screen is right side up reading and if one walked to the back, the work is upside down. The precedent was set as early as the 16th century for The New Testament and Psalter, as each book was needed during services. In a 1956 novel by Patrick Dennis, The Loving Couple: His (and Her) Story, the author used the tete beche binding to give each character a separate voice in the narrative. Because the letters left at games end were "II", I chose to use the tete beche binding (loosely interpreted, to say the least) for this screen. My opening haiku for each side: I am, she uttered Head to tail, I stand upright Cut and run? Or stay? I am, replied he. Tail to head, I'm upside down.

A professional artist living and working in Baltimore MD USA. I lived in Leeds, UK for 3 years w my English husband. We have a daughter and are now relocated back to Baltimore. I create artist books based on games of Scrabble that I have played. I document the game, screen print the resultant pattern onto various media such as paper, fabric, wood, roofing paper, etc. The title of each "book" is the letters left at game's end. Haiku are written using the words played during the game.
