About this piece:
This is the third book in a series of bird poems that reflect on the mysteries of birds. The lines of beauty refers not only to Hogarth’s curve but also geographical and cosmic orientations, to the lineage of new generations, and to lines of poetry itself. Finally it ends with a question on the continual rhythm and orchestration of lines.

Includes print techniques such as a  ink drawdowns, stencils, pochoir, intaglio and letterpress from polymer plates.
