POINT OF DEPARTURE describes an imaginary journey, primarily to the British Isles, But really to wherever it might suggest. This pop-up book was inspired by the cancellation of a real trip, and also by the irresistibly quotable text and figurative illustrations found in Posing for the Camera, by Harriet Shepard and Lenore Meyer, published by Hastings House in 1960, and distributed by Milady Publishing Corp. (I kid you not!)
Mixed media with Cibachrome prints, C-prints, and gelatin silver prints. 11.25 x 14 x 2 inches closed.
