​SOOT, 2013-18
artist book
17 copies, 69 pages
8 1/2 x 7 inches
​
In the Summer of 2013, I worked in "residency" as a clerk at the Vancouver Sex Shop "the Fantasy Factory". During my two months there, I created a series of books by hand; the performative nature of sewing and writing in-situ produced a chronicle of personal investigations regarding pornographic culture. The above show the transcribed edition of one such book, titled SOOT.

Exhibited at Unit 17 in Vancouver, B.C. between December 16, 2017-January 21, 2018, for the exhibition "SOOT".
