* I've been enjoying adding instinctual stitching to my chunky little 3X3 inch book. I usually add instinctual stitching to the pages before and after they're bound, but I especially love adding the stitching when the book is complete. It's the little details that inspire me. Talking about inspiration, I'm excited to announce on Saturday April 29th at 10am on Instagram, I'm introducing something new, a 30 minute live glimpse on what I'm currently working on in my studio. More details coming.. * * * #instinctualstitching #stitchedprojects #intuitiveart #intuitivestitching #abstractart #mixedmediaartist #contemporaryart #modernart #stitchedlayers #texturedart #handmadebooks #littlebookmaking #littlebooks #mixedmedia #artbook #artistbooks #textileart #fiberarts #fiberartist #textileart #artistbook #bookarts #bookart #bookmaker #mixedmediaart #artbooks #handmadejournals #handstitched #socalartist #beatrizhelton https://www.instagram.com/p/CqZRHLIpaLE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Story in caption. Week 8 - Pink Oyster (#funguary week 4) This week, we delved into a very humid part of the hidden fungal valley. The scientists presented me another fungus, named ‘pink oyster’ mushroom. But I suppose the name ‘flamingo mushroom’ would be more opportune! Like many of its brethren, the fungus grows on wood, especially small shrubs and sticks. Its micells grow all over and into the wood, devouring it slowly. But once the food source begins to dwindle, this fungus not only develops the most charming pink fruit bodies, it also takes control of the surviving dead sticks. By contracting in an astonishingly coordinated way while using the wood as a skeleton, the fungus leaves its former home, stalking through the wood in search of new feeding grounds. To the uninformed observer, this intriguing fungal creature really appears like a small pink flamingo slowly stalking through the wood! Its slow and charmingly awkward movements ensure optimal disposal and spread of the spores. And when the fungus finally gets caught in an impenetrable shrub, unable to move further, the micell will start spreading again and explore this new feeding ground. Amazing! Yet, as much as I love this valley, it’s time to move on. I encountered a competing research team on our way back and received a most tempting invitation.

An editioned artist book I made in 2017, a farce still sadly relevant. The historic images dissolve to reveal Trump’s own quotes. #artistbooks #letterpress #metaltype #lockhimup (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChfJf9lLTcU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Roberto Fernandez Ibanez Renaissance Man
Roberto Fernández Ibáñez is artist and artisan, exploring ideas with his eyes and with his hands; with his mind and with his heart. Amid the contemporary swirl of superficial visual stimulation, he stands against the flow. Where others specialise, he embraces many disciplines. When others rush, he determines to remain slow. While others seek fame before the many, he looks to the quality of human connection. In the Age of the Digital, he innovates through the craft of the analogue. In a world of specialists and celebrities; of instant communication and quick fixes, Roberto Fernandez Ibanez asks us to slow down and reflect upon the deeper meaning of life and the conundrum of our very existence.
Roberto Fernández Ibáñez speaks about his artmaking and his philosophy at Talking Pictures.

* Today I'm working on two little books, trying to decide which I will send to a collector who is a dear friend of mine. It's a lovely day to sit outside and stitch, There's no rain predicted until Wednesday and Thursday so I'm enjoying the sunshine. I hope you're enjoying the weekend doing what you love too! * * * #instinctualstitching #instinctuallystitched #instinctualstitch #intuitivestitch #paintedfabric #handmadebooks #littlebookmaking #littlebooks #lilbooks #mixedmedia #artbook #artistbooks #textileart #textileartist #fiberarts #fiberartist #artistbook #bookarts #bookart #bookmaker #mixedmediaart #handstitched #littlebooks #creativebookmaking #handstitching #artbooks #handmadejournals #perfectionnotion #socalartist #beatrizhelton # https://www.instagram.com/p/CqOxt83O3hx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Case room Press
To inform the layouts of my outcome, I have decided to look at Case room Press, to see how typography is used as a design element. This will inform me how I can develop a graphical language to convey the emotions behind my conversations.
Fond Farewells
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fond Farewells explores lost language by highlighting well known phrases that are no longer used in current society (Butler, 2016b). I like how the type changes depending on hoe the word is said or pronounced. For example, Too die pip!, places emphasis on the last part by increasing the letter height. This shows that the end of the phrase is said louder than the start, Whereas, 'Pip Pip' is the same type throughout, showing it is said in the same volume and tone.
To give the English farewells more context, they have split the project into two volumes, his and hers (Butler, 2016b). This implies that the farewell phrases in each book relate to which farewells different genders would typically use. I like how they have reinforced this message by using pieces of traditional suit and dress materials to make the pages. This makes the narrative and message clear and concise throughout the book.
Furthermore, by using a ribbon to close it, they are showing that this is something to be cherished. This will make a person take extra time to examine it because it shows that it holds important information.
The phrases are different sizes throughout the book. This implies that the phrases that are bigger were used more frequently than phrases that have a smaller sized font.
This book has reinforced the fact that the form of my outcome is just as important as the content within it. By choosing a form that links to my narrative, I can use the audiences interaction with my outcome to engage them and draw their attention to the important elements.
Look+Say
This book is a collaborative project that began with a set of 1960s ladybird flashcards (Grainger and Wood, 2022). It starts with one person creating a word by folding the flash card in half and inserting a piece of vintage proofing paper, they then create a new word on the parchment paper before passing it on to the next person (Grainger and Wood, 2022).
I like how this forces the artists to focus on how they can create a narrative. This leads to them having to carefully consider their next word and how it could impact the narrative as a whole. I also like how the narrative is not controlled by one person, which makes it random and unpredictable.
I like how the collaborative element of this book encourages the audience to explore the word around them. By using a simple exercise to create the book, they have made it easy for the audience to try themselves. Therefore, they are encouraged to explore the subject further. I think this method could be useful for my outcome because it will encourage my audience to start getting to know people by showing them a simple exercise they can use. I could use my conversations to show this, making it easier to see that the steps do not need to be scary.

Editions at play
When looking at the case room press, this project was listed below it on google. When I clicked on it I was intrigued by the concept because the project explores ownership in a digital format, when ownership is usually classed as something you physically own.
Tumblr media
This digital book explores ownership and authorship by allowing each person who owns it to edit the book (Uglow, 2017). I find this concept interesting because the creators original narrative may be completely lost as it is owned by more and more people. Therefore, the narrative is controlled by the audience.
Tumblr media
Furthermore, by using a visual system to show this change, a transforming grid, the audience can see how the narrative has changed and differed from the original over time. This shows how a visual system can help to aid the narrative. Therefore, when considering the layout of my book, I will need to consider how I can include lines, grids, shapes or type to direct the narrative and give context to my audience. This could be through a line, arrows or illustrations.
