your eye protects the soft-toed snowdrop: special order limited stock

£30.00

LIMITED STOCK AVAILABLE IN THE UK ONLY ON IS&T

Since 2011, Helen Pletts & Romit Berger have been publishing their Word & Image collaborations on Ink Sweat & Tears and their work has been a touchstone, a point of reference for all other work of this kind. We long thought that these pieces were meant to be seen on the printed page, however, and were therefore thrilled when we heard that Gama Press in Israel were going to publish your eye protects the soft-toed snowdrop.

In the forward to this beautiful book, Helen Ivory notes: At the heart of this book is the melancholic joy of living in our uncertain world. Amidst all that is ugly we hope to scare up the harmonics of colour, flourishing lines and that sweet insolvable mystery of being.

She ends by saying Oh, but don’t let me put words into your head – turn over the page and see for yourself.

Buy the book and see for yourself.
