Many of you know I have put all things aside in the last few months, including the work here, to focus and to produce my next 100 piece exhibition of hand-made miniaturized garments. At last count, I will have 109 pieces for this exhibition.
My plan is to start making the first book immediately after this period.
"One World Wallet" is a social global art experiment open to anyone who may be interested in sharing their information about art and commerce as it relates to their everyday lives.
I am now collecting stories and images from the "One World Wallet" site and have already started compiling information for the first book.
Haydn Shaughnessy and I started this project over a year ago with the premise of making low-tech archaic forms of the book from high-tech information gleaned from the blogging on "One World Wallet." We love this idea of technology in reverse, and especially with our economic situation most recently. Many of you have added photos and stories and we want to give you guys a chance to include your voice in this book series. if have not already done so. www.oneworldwallet.ning.com
Of course, as we have stated, all full members will receive credit on a tribute page in each book and please let me know if there is a particular way you want your name to appear as this is very important to us.
For my part, I want to say a very special thanks to Haydn Shaughnessy and Roos Demol for helping me make this happen as their continued support is immeasurable.
All of these books are hand-made.
We have set our sights on doing three books at this point but this could expand depending on the amount of information taken from the site.
Each of these books will be unique unless we are told that there is additional interest in limited edition pieces, in which case, I will seek ways to reproduce them accordingly.
We thank each of you for your time and patience. We also thank you for all of the support and encouragement you have given us in helping make this very unique project come to fruition. We certainly appreciate you. Please let me know your thoughts.
Best ever,
jon
