Book Artist & Print Maker Patricia Silva
From 2014 to 2016, I worked on a series of collaborative artists’ book projects with the artist and writer, Lyall Harris….By the end, we had produced a series of 12 artists’ books (each in an edition of 2) dealing with topics as diverse as women’s identity, motherhood, loss, organ transplantation and the immigration crisis in Europe.
