Relief and Rescue
2006
Altered book
14 x 10 x 1 in.
In 2006 I was invited to respond to Hurricane Katrina, in which thousands of books were lost in the flooding. I soaked books in water, then removed the printed words with an exacto knife leaving behind words that created a narrative about the devastation of the storm.
