About

The members of the collective bound : unbound make artist books. These books reflect the diverse practices of each artist – printmaking, painting, lettering, installation and textiles.

Originally known as the Artist Book Group, the collective has chosen to refresh their image as bound : unbound to reflect the formal and less formal nature of their book works. The group meets regularly to discuss the scope of the artist book, and to plan exhibitions, collaborations and commissions.
