SORT had a great collection of blocks for printing and this is the notebook I printed with my name. I hope to do more letterpress some day - it is a very beautiful art. I love the way the letters and images are embossed in the card.
"Mandy Prowse studied painting and printmaking at Maidstone College of Art. She explores natural and human forms and the interconnectedness of all things. Themes in her work relate to birth, mortality and metamorphosis. Her altered books are minimalistic and organic combining a modern aesthetic with an almost Victorian touch. If you told me these books were 100 years old I wouldn’t think twice about it.”
