After This
After This, pairs layered abstract imagery from my Strange Appearance series with a collection of poems, each in their own way providing queer takes on grief, sexuality, apocalypse and living in the Anthropocene.
After This artist book project
A special boxed edition containing the poetry collection and a handmade artist book version of the title poem was exhibited as part of my exhibition The Adjacent Possible, at the Print Council of Australia.
