limited edition of 50, Soft cover, cotton saddle-stitched.

printed by Oreri Inizative Editoriale, Caglinari, Sardinia.

in this chapbook zine of photographs and poetry, artist Sal Taylor Kydd examines the nature of grief, and the unraveling destabilizing impact it can have in our lives.

the zine is printed as a series of risograghs, lending an impressionistic, charcoal softness to the images, further emphasizing the feelings of erasure and dislocation that grieving can bring. in tandem with these images both expansive and intimate, Kydds poetry turn a raw gaze internally, challenging and confronting a turbulent inner landscape.

“loss is a gift, to sharpen my teeth on”

in contrast, through moments of observation of the minutiae of nature, Kydd finds a sense of solace and renewal, so vital in our ability to heal and find acceptance
