Another enigmatic unique illuminated manuscript from Brian D. Tripp. Six exceptionally vibrant, double-sided paintings, in two sizes, are bound together in a crenelated accordion fold structure that can be unfolded or paged in numerous forms that reflect the contents of the paintings. The various page combinations collage the iconic and graphic images in the book in ways that further the symbolic geometric Karuk language that Tripp provides the ‘landscape’ for Tripp’s own rock spirit/people characters to inhabit.
