This is the third book in the miniature pillow book series. Adria Klinger's poem "Transformation" accompanies beautifully sensual watercolor paintings by Alicia Bailey, in a pairing of words and images that is both evocative and explicit. Alicia Bailey began publishing under the Ravenpress imprint in 1996. Ravenpress publications are held in private, public and special collections worldwide. Bailey thinks of the artists' book works she creates as interactive sculptures realized in the form of the book. She works in a wide variety of materials, including those not often associated with the book form, thus necessitating structural redesign and innovations.
