"Before this collaged artists' book of mine, 'I chanced upon the unexpected and found I liked it', makes its way to the State Library of New South Wales, I sat outside and turned its pages.



I am in my parents back garden, the season is spring five days in, and the clock chimes in the background.



We are in Worcester. Or are we?

Turn the pages once more, peer over my shoulder, I've a new artists' book to share.

'Looking only for you' is 28 pages in length and features collage and pencil across the pages of 'Der Rhein' (Von Mainz bis Köln no. 524, Karlund Bremer & Co, Köln A.R.H.). It was exhibited in 2009 as part of 'A key to help make your own world visible', and now resides in the State Library of Victoria's collection.

Thanks to Omar the Siamese cat for making appearance and Louise for the filming. Small iPhone magic not possible without either.
