Blue icons

Walsh, Dan -- 1960- (artist.). Sprott, Stephen, (book designer.). Printed Matter, Inc., (publisher.). Conveyor Arts, (printer.).

Summary: "Blue Icons is a hand-stitched conceptual book project by Dan Walsh. Available in two versions -- Blue Icon (Day edition) and Blue Icon (Night edition) -- the works offer a different take on a small-edition project first produced by Walsh in 2013 under his imprint Moody Studios. Across thirty-two pages, Blue Icon (Day edition) explores a minimalist conceit shaped by two progressions of form. Each sheet has been trimmed down to a different size and is composed of small 'halftone' dots that shift across the color spectrum, from greenish to violet-y blue. Turning through the book these two variances are played against each other as the reader moves toward smaller pages and deeper hues (and then back out with the sequence in reverse). When laid open at the center stitching the book's pages are nested in ascending order, radiating outward in a bright aura."
