Item description from seller

SIGNED limited first edition, first printing. Near Fine hardcover with light tapping to the extremities, a small bump to the bottom edge of the boards, and a tiny abrasion; no dj as issued. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. A photographic study of lines and shapes created by his deconstruction of a bird’s nest. The portfolio of 31 images is divided into two sections. The first is titled Reconstruction and shows the entire contents of the nest pulled apart and rearranged for inspection. After several images are created he builds or "reconstructs" new images by superimposing and layering one image onto another. The final image results in a dense black field. In the second chapter, Blades of Grass, the fibers are further separated. Here we see how individual lines have been formed by the bird’s original woven construction. Photographs and statement by Randy West. SIGNED BY WEST on the colophon page and dated in 2006. From a numbered edition limited to 500 copies, this being #115. 69 pages; 31 four-color b&w plates; 7 x 9.75 inches.…
