Paper Poems

Manchester born graphic artist/designer Rick Myers (1974) is known for using simple materials and processes and for his enthusiastic approach, allowing work to influence it’s own direction, and being influenced by overlapping thoughts and situations to make new work.\n\nPaper Poems “started as a collection of new work made using paper, and gradually became a poem made using debris from workings of the booklet. There’s a visual index/poem towards back pages, and the contents are visible working components. It’s also an homage to paper, and a simpler, far less exhausting way of making a portable museum than before.”\n\nRick’s most known project is the Funnel Vision Portable Museum / footprintsinthesnow which was firstly presented at the Liverpool Biennial 2004 and then during British Architecture Week 2005.\n\nA special edition with a signed and numbered box including 4 paper flags and a sculpture by the artist is available.
