TRANSMUTE | A collection of poetical substances to be said out loud

from BAG

Book/Magazine

A5 sized handmade booklet with card (Orange, Green, Pink) or sugar paper (Blue, Cream) Lino-printed cover and hand-bound in coloured embroidery thread. A collection of 13 pieces.

This is the very first run of handmade poetry booklets by Jody DeSchutter: written, edited, and handcrafted by the artist. In anticipation of upcoming sonic releases this collection of spoken word has been transcribed to the page, pulling together previously released material and the yet-to-be-released. With an interest in how the words morph between spoken and written, this collection serves as an alternate perspective to the words performed as part of BAG.

A journey from the clay to jittering atoms out of our atmosphere, this collection brings the spoken word onto the page, asking how how meaning shifts depending on context. Some of these pieces will be released sonically in the near future and with a nod to constructivism, the artist wonders how it will shape understanding having read the verse or heard it spoken first…

Please note that each item is made by hand so imperfections or uniqueness may occur :)
