PAINT ME Chapbook
This chapbook was created in response to the social issue of homelessness in Dublin. I sourced the text from a spoken word poem written by a 21-year-old Dublin man who is facing homelessness. The Peter McVerry Trust published a recording of him performing his work here.
I created the chapbook using NCAD's Distiller's Press using both metal and wood type. The chapbook is A5 in size and folds out to display the full poem. I've used both silver and black ink, finishing the book with a black 160gm cover. The book is hand sewn together with silver thread. I created 26 prints in total.
The chapbook can be found in the following libraries:
National Library of Ireland, Dublin
National Irish Visual Arts Library, Dublin
Berkeley Library, Trinity College, Dublin
Boole Library, University College, Cork
Beinecke Library, Yale, New Haven, CT
Cushing Memorial Library, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX
