I have been researching, writing, printing and binding books for 30 years, mainly on Book Arts related topics. [I am] committed to “hands on” approach, printing letterpress and doing much of the binding myself.

Artist’s statement: Claire Maziarczyk

I have been making paste papers since 1982. For me the process is a celebration of childhood and finger painting and my ongoing exploration of color and my Polish heritage. Creating my patterns is a daily meditation for me. I consider it a gift.
