Cheryl Penn's book of books

[Alicia Starr]

customs declaration CN22, states "BOOK, NO VALUE" and i beg to differ. Layers of history, a chronicle, a saga, hidden pockets of Cheryl's boekies of past. The complexity of this piece is borderline overwhelming, staggering and gorgeous! Apologies for the photos and this blog. Here is a peek into this marvel. Thank you Cheryl. My mind is permanently blown.

more photos to follow.

Thank you for posting Alicia - always relieved when these efforts arrive safely at their destination.  Stephanie - thats VERY kind of you! I confess after making 4 of these I did not have the energy to make any more.  It ALWAYS pays to revisit old work - new ideas come from foundations - some free-float - but those are so transient, and unless written down  straight away - (Im REALLY bad at that!) they never linger until one starts to materialize them - well - thats my experience anyway...  Alicia - I know you've sent something - maybe Monday - I'm holding thumbs X

Yes, Cheryl has that effect on me also.  It's always a great pleasure to see what she has been up to. Her work is always so crisp.  so professional. amazing really. It is always a true work of art. She is one of my idols in the Mail Art community.
