Salt Point Press: Kingdom Aqueous

Photographed in the tide pools at Salt Point State Park in northern California over a period of twelve years, Kingdom Aqueous is an ode to the creatures who live in this wild interstitial zone at the brink of the sixth mass extinction. Printed full bleed, these images disclose the intense vibrancy and other-worldly architecture of life beneath these cold and stormy northern waters, at a moment of catastrophic change.

Comprised of 12 folios, each an 8-page gatefold, inspired by both the structure and spirit of Kikuji Kawada’s 1965 book Chizu (The Map). The full-bleed archival pigment prints are on Hiromi asuka papers . A separate 8-page concertina fold contains the colophon. Concertina bound in a hardcover of dubletta and asuka. 7.25″ x 5″ x 1″ Edition of 24, 2024
