Description
Sheryl Oppenheim works in genres that lend themselves to private experiences, making paintings, collages, and artist’s books using marbled and suminagashi papers. Here we see both techniques blended in a dynamic and immersive unique book and its equally engaging protective and decorated drop-spine box. Oppenheim encountered marbling while working at TALAS and initially taught herself suminagashi from the Heyek Press’ book on the subject, later taking a workshop with Yukari Hayashida.
