At long last the book version of the Earthworks project is complete! And as I leaf through the pages, I feel the warm glow of a job well done, thanks to the solid support of Chelsea Frew (designer) and Ricky Frew (photographer).
This beautiful, high-quality art book contains over a hundred pages of images and words celebrating the intricate workings of the earth, as experienced through the eyes - and hands - of textile and mixed media artist Jan Kilpatrick. Striking photography by Ricky Frew illustrates the landscape that both inspires Jan’s work and provides the materials from which the work is made. The nature-led processes involved in the making are also recorded through photography, along with a selection of the finished textile and poetry works that emerged from this immersive project. It is a visual feast.
Earthworks, the book, is a textile-covered, hardback volume, almost A4 in size. It is limited to an edition of 500 signed copies and was launched on the 28th May 2023. It is only available through the artist’s website.
Read this delightful review by one very satisfied reader!
