Artist Statement

Some things vanish so gradually you barely notice they’re gone. Remember when information had weight?

Gone Digital is a handmade artist book collecting the ephemera of analog life—objects and gestures that quietly disappeared as the digital absorbed them. Bound in circuit boards, it holds what the cloud cannot: the texture of things we once touched.

Materials and Techniques

Circuit board covers, coptic stitch binding, gelli prints over pressboard for pages; ephemera and embossed labels.
