When you’ve settled into a certain path, such as making books, it’s easy to start to expect that’s what you should be making. With all your creative time. I’ve always been, I suppose, “creatively easily bored”. I always thought I’d find it difficult to make limited edition work, to make many of the same. When I’ve made a unique piece, there’s nothing to add to it – to make another one, I’ve felt, would somehow steal from the originality of the first, the unique. And even if some of the techniques and details most certainly will carry over to future work, I would avoid repeating something identically. The closest to a limited edition I’ve made, was late last year with eight pieces of this cast tin necklace. Still – true to myself, of course – each has slightly different surface details so they’re not truly identical. I’ve only got one left, so maybe there’s something to be said about making many… (May08)
