| Title: Debris of the Days |
| By (author): Bryan Graf |
| ISBN10-13: 0990801683 : 9780990801689 |
| Debris of the Days is an accumulation of photographs, archives, and ephemera from the artistâ s studio, a tactile glimpse into experimental practice and daily rituals of Bryan Graf. The bookâ s title was inspired by the poetry of Raymond Carver, who, as Graf writes, â wrote about the debris of the days, and how that dust sculpts our lives. In its spiral bound form, the book acts as sketchbook of sorts, sculpted by the detritus orbiting Grafâ s images. Debris of the Days also reflects on the artist book as practiceâ particularly darkroom workâ which inherently involves the physical layers of material. The repetition of making print after print, the rhythm and repetition of sequence, and the final, tactile stages of printing and binding the book itself, are all evident in this publication. The book, comprised of images, text, inserts, torn pages, vellumâ which overlay the images in a nod to darkroom processâ unravel the layers, rhythm, and repetition of Grafâ s daily practice. Like the ideas for short stories and poems found written in a tiny notebook in Carver's terry cloth robe after his death, Debris of the Days creates an unfinished portrait of the artist told through fragments. |

| Title: Moemoea |
| ISBN10-13: 1950401014 : 9781950401017 |
| Moemoe? explores the revival of traditional voyaging in Hawaii and how the canoe became a catalyst for connection, cultural empowerment, and fostering humanityâ s relationship with the natural world. It is a story of how ancient knowledge and modern science coalesced to revitalize a nearly extinct cultural tradition and a testament to the power of dreams, or moemoe?. The first book, The Spell, opens with a series of lush photographs that capture life on the open ocean, lulling the reader into a sensory experience. Drawn from ancestral voyaging mythology and the artistâ s own visionary dreams, fragments of narrative text ebb and flow through the book, while illustrations by Sophy Hollington serve as visual footnotes. Taking inspiration from nautical logbooks, The Spell is wire-bound into a hardcover case and incorporates luminescent paper to evoke the glistening surface of the ocean. Tucked into a discreet back pocket, The Story features an essay by Jeremy Haik alongside Koâ s documentary photographs that highlight the visionaries who breathed life back into Hawaiian voyaging. Presented through a framework of mythology and dreams, it is a story that begins with the ancestors of Polynesians who mastered the art of celestial wayfinding and the language of the ocean three millennia before the European Age of Exploration. This remarkable chronicle is anchored by H?k?le?a, a modern incarnation of an ancient voyaging canoe that became a catalyst for connection, cultural reclamation, and fostering humanityâ s relationship with the natural world. |

| Title: Same Sum |
| By (author): Peter Christian |
| ISBN10-13: 1950401006 : 9781950401000 |
| We are excited to announce the launch of Same Sum, a new photobook by Peter Happel Christian that playfully explores observation, chance, and the everyday magic of ordinary life. The included photographs are part of an ongoing, expansive project of the same name that began as intentional exercises in observation. The result is a vast collection of subjects and situationsâ some found, others constructedâ that occur in parallel to Happel Christianâ s daily life. The title takes inspiration from an Italo Calvino essay wherein experience is fluid and meanings are flexibleâ that within the finite is an infinite. Similarly, the images in Same Sum have no fixed sequence, allowing for the possibility of seemingly endless experiences of the same images. The bookâ s interactive design is inspired by card games and magic tricks; the double coil bound format creates two decks of photographs to riffle shuffle, creating a unique set of image combinations determined by chance with each read. |

| Title: Strange Paradise |
| By (author): Charlie Rubin |
| ISBN10-13: 098341839X : 9780983418399 |
| Strange Paradise ambles between the peculiar and the familiar, as Charlie Rubin works intuitively to create unexpected combinations with idiosyncratic logic. Taking perception as his waypoint, Rubin presents a kaleidoscopic body of work that explores the convergence of the actual and the artificial. While some photographs are manipulated, many are left unchanged, serving to pace and balance the work, and to further question what is real and what is altered. |

| Title: The Walking Woman |
| By (author): Tanyth Berkeley |
| ISBN10-13: 0990801675 : 9780990801672 |
| The Walking Woman is an extended portrait of two women, both on the cusp of invisibility in the American Southwest, braided together in a parable of banishment and atonement. In her lyrical approach to the photographic narrative, Berkeley documents the parallel lives of two strangers, Ruth and Spice, against the sacred beauty of the desert landscape. In doing so, she raises environmental concerns alongside feminist ones, suggesting both to be the products of a capitalist and paternalistic society. The Walking Woman borrows its title from Mary Austinâ s short story depicting a mysterious woman who walks between frontier towns in the American Southwest. Originally published in The Atlantic Monthly in 1907, the story is both timeless and universal, with an uncanny resemblance to the contemporary narratives at play in this book. In their respective works, both Mary Austin and Tanyth Berkeley capture the relationship between the beauty and frailty of the desert landscape and the lives of the women walking it. |
