A print of an original illustration made for a fold-out page in my artist book 'Silent Quarter' (copies available in shop) The main character of the story is an old man who holds a special position in his community - he is both the local barber and ceremonial mask-maker for rituals. He is a master of transformation in every sense.
Silent Quarter is a darkly beautiful, illustrated short-story. It is an emotional and philosophically reflective journey through the mind of an old man - who is both a mask-maker and a barber - as he comes to the end of his long life of love, service, ceremony and creativity.
In 2016 I ran a Kickstarter in collaboration with Antlers Gallery to fund the production and publishing of the book:
