Scope and Contents

Commissioned for "The Beauty in Breathing" exhibition, this book object has panels on its sides which jut out that can be moved to and fro much like swimmers use their arms. The top has panels which lie flat as they are flipped, perhaps analogous to the legs. Both text and images are photocopied fragments from books which deal with instructions of methods of breathing during swimming; these have been collaged onto the panels. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
