The soon to be published book (Estimated to be published October 2024) ‘In bed I cut words’ is a small selection of collages which Corina created on her bed between April 2022 and April 2023 were spontaneous, intuitive responses to the artist’s situation of life in care. All written contributions are personal views expressed by the authors. ©️2024.
The title for the book is from the above collage. The book was designed in close collaboration with David Murphy of Red Heaven Design. Lismore.
Initially this is limited edition of 200 hardback books are Free. But donations to Waterford Healing Arts greatly appreciated – to help me go ‘full circle’. The book, this Art piece, will also in time be available as digital interactive download. Perhaps more copies will be printed in paperback – but it is out of my league. Ideas and support are welcome.
For a short introduction to the project see the home page. Further information on this book page when it becomes available.
