As a response to my time as Artist in Residence at Fruitlands Museum I made a large roll of book pages. The focus of the year at the museum was literature and the history of writers connected with the place. I responded by spending over two hundred hours creating a scroll of pages from over one hundred books. All of the books selected are from my own personal library and were my copies that I read. The final few books, as I neared the end, were selected based on their themes of journey. I like to think of the place and the pilgrims who arrive there as Paul Elie defined a pilgrim: A person who takes a journey, “in light of a story.”
