Tallahassee, Florida:: Small Craft Advisory Press,, 2019.. Edition of 32. 15 x 9 x 4 inches with enclosure. Letterpress printing. Materials: dyed wax paper, leather. Unique concertina binding. Laid in lidded oblong box. Numbered. . Small Craft Advisory Press: "Fashioning is the second book collaboration between Denise Bookwalter and Lee Emma Running. Their first artists' book, Lining, investigated the intimate relationship of textiles next to the skin. In 'Fashioning' the artists continue their work with their intimate relationship with clothing. Clothing retains the story of the wearer. In Fashioning the artists capture their relationship with clothing by making rubbings of embellishments found on personally significant garments. The drawings directly capture a moment in the life of the textile. The textile contains its own evidence of the hands that made it and the bodies that wore it. Each of the rubbings were transferred to letterpress printing plates, printed in white, resit dyed, and waxed to create a book structure that becomes a book the reader wears. Fashioning is a tactile experience embedded in cloth and paper." To read the book put your hands into the cover handles and open your arms.
