A Book of Wander: Tarriff Aware, 2025
A cool new accordion from Clarke-Davis, the moody feeling of the work is emphasized by the film sprocket framing which also gives it a sense of movement. The camera becomes witness and documentarian of these darkened spaces of the night all of which resonates and seems very apropos for the present times.
6 single sided pages, individually 5" x 7" and when unfolded 3ft 6"

A Book of Wanderings, 2025
Another in Clarke-Davis' flaneur of the night books in which he documents deserted city streets. The following quote is from this book's end page, "A book of wanderings from the early morning without taxis or uber, if my sister only knew...".
What's interesting for me about this book is its structure, it has been printed in a long strip like an accordion, but both end pages are glued to the cover. The result is an accordion book that you can't open up and it forces the viewer/reader to experience it as a traditional book, although it is ostensibly two different kinds of books. An interesting dilemma for sure!
24 pages, individually 4.25" x 4".
