Heather Peters/Society of Hermits:
Hypoxia

Heather Peters

Hypoxia is the loss of oxygen in one’s tissue, a suffocation that can occur from a few different causes- two of which are discussed in the book. Air pollution from wildfires can deplete the oxygen in an environment, as well as in birth a separation from the placenta can separate the unborn child from the source oxygen. This is a book that breaths, a life support system achieved by pumping the bellow within the book structure.

Handmade gampi with burn fragments from the western sierras. Folded bellow structure is handmade paper as well. Digitally printed cloth cover.
