Artist Talk with Leslie Marsh
7825 Fay Avenue, courtyard level, Suite LLA, San Diego, 92037
Age Limit: 18+
Cost: Free
During this lecture, book artist Leslie Marsh will talk about the inspiration for her books and creating a cohesive body of work. Using metal, stones, and vintage findings, she forges relic-like book covers that call to mind medieval treasure bindings created during the Middle Ages. Leslie also experiments with the marks left by leaves on paper by steeping the two together. The resulting ecoprints form signature wrappers used in most of her work. Her books are held in private collections across the US, Europe, and Australia.
