Fe-O, 2011

Fe-O is a book created in collaboration with Seoul-based artist JongKu Kim. Kim is internationally known for his horizontal landscape art works created with iron filings that he reduced from a solid form. While milling a 650-pound steel rod to a delicate black powder may appear to be an act of dematerialization, the elements oxygen and iron are, in fact, actively bonding, producing iron oxide. Named after the scientific abbreviation of this compound, Fe-O embodies these intangible chemical and spiritual reactions with narratives incurred during the filing process.
