I want to briefly let you know about an exhibition of tiny books which I worked on with Jen Herzig Smith, held in alittle_spacegallery, a fabulous mobile gallery created and curated by South Wales-based artist TEMMAH. Jen and I envisioned our show in the gallery space as a tiny library, able to be carried around […]
