  • "For the creation of this book handmade kozo paper was dyed in an indigo vat, hung on laundry lines in the sun, gelatin sized, and pressed flat over the course of a year. Paul Auster graciously gave permission for the reproduction of his poem Effigies, and the printing and drawing commenced in early 2012. Each image was re-drawn by hand for the edition with sumi ink by Sarah Horowitz in Portland, Oregon. Art Larson of Horton Tank Graphics in Hadley, Massachusetts printed the letterpress on un-dyed sheets of kozo. Claudia Cohen bound the edition in indigo-dyed flax paper made by Cave Paper. Twenty copies in all were produced of Effigies by Wiesedruck. 2012"--Colophon.
