"Reflections", Inkjet, Letterpress, 2018

Reflections was created, printed and bound by Lizzy Arden at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA in the fall of 2018. This book incorporates inkjet printing and letterpress. The text is excerpted from Wallace Stevens’ poem “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird” and is handset in Cloister & Deepdene.

The text was chosen because it positions the reader at multiple perspectives, requiring the reader to look at things differently, as well as for its historical symbolism for comparison and all of the gray areas in between . Reflections, portrays the warped perception of oneself and embodies the recurrence of pessimistic thoughts. The plant pictured is Basil, which represented hate during the Victorian era.
