A FIELD GUIDE TO WEEDS
A FIELD GUIDE TO WEEDS
$35.00
This book masquerades as a 19th century pocket guide, but a guide in which the weeds themselves have taken over. It uses the physical form of the book as a metaphor for a crack in the city sidewalk: the dandelion, pigweed, and poison ivy—the very plants we step over, ignore, dig up, or scrupulously avoid—creep out of the gutter, up pages, and overrun the book. Multiple silhouettes overlap and repeat, drawing the reader’s attention to the overlooked.
