ABC DARIUM

Certainly a collectable book.

During his career Dave Wood has also created a number of original and limited edition handmade concertina books, most of which are now held in public and private collections. His "RAIN" book is one of these artist's books still available and featured.

COLLECTABLE BOOKS

A truly beautiful collectible book is an original concertina book of excerpts of Chief Seattle's Peace Treaty Statement which is one of a series of three handmade books which Dave created to gain his Fellowship to the Society of Scribes & Illuminators in London in 1991. This book is now being available for purchase on application.

Dave Wood has an amazing eye for colour and design and these artist's books convey his sensitivity to the written word both as poems and the ABC darium.
