About This Item
Portland, Maine:: Rebecca Goodale,, 2012.. Edition of 5. 5.5 x 5.5 x 3". Paper ribbon of MacGregor handmade papers. Paste papers, hand coloring, and silkscreen prints. In drop hinge cloth-covered clamshell box. Title handpainted on lid in Latin. Title, number, edition, year, and signature on pastepaper lining lid interior. Another work in Rebecca Goodale's Threatened & Endangered series, which presents the threatened and endangered flora and fauna of Maine. In Maine the small water lily is considered to be in the threatened status. Here the delicate lily pads and one bloom are attached to paper ribbon anchored to the box's bottom. Nicholas Schroeder, Rebecca Goodale's Artists Books at UNE: "For those not solely concerned with Goodale's unorthodox field guide of endangered species, her most arresting ideas are to be discovered in the limitless ways in which she conceives of a book. 'Pygmy Pond Lily,'
exploits a jack-in-the-box motif to an almost nightmarish degree, its fronds (made from paste paper and marbling on Tyvek silkscreen prints) creep in every direction.
