THE PRINT PROJECT
TO COMMEMORATE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF DYLAN THOMAS, TWELVE PRINTMAKERS FROM SWANSEA PRINT WORKSHOP COLLABORATED TO CREATE A BOX OF TWELVE ORIGINAL PRINTS IN A LIMITED EDITION OF ONE HUNDRED. EACH ARTIST USED THE POEM 'ESPECIALLY WHEN THE OCTOBER WIND' AS THEIR STARTING POINT AND STIMULUS TO DEVELOP THE IMAGES.
The twelve handprinted images are loosely bound in a custom made box by the Fine Bindery, Northampton with tejo green cloth covers and embossed type and motifs.
All prints are fully authenticated and the box contains a colophon signed by Aeronwy Thomas, Dylan Thomas's daughter.
Additionally the colophon contains a copy of the poem, an essay by the writer, poet and translator, Malcolm Parr entitled 'That Momentary Peace', in which he explores the links between genius, imagination and the written word. Malcolm Parr, who also opened the exhibition in The Dylan Thomas Centre, Swansea, has individually signed each of these inserts, as has Andrew Davies, Assembly Member, Welsh Assembly Government, who wrote the foreword to this unique edition.
All text appears in English and Welsh.
