Shana Mabari is pleased to announce the release of SPACE and OCEANS, the first two titles in an anticipated series of artist books, VOLUMES. Conceived in response to her experiences during two groundbreaking artist residencies, the custom-designed books feature essays curated by Mabari accompanied by images of her select artworks and are a collaboration with Sébastien Montabonel of Alaska Editions, whose bespoke design for each reflects the artist’s commitment to creating printed matter as works of art.

Each title is published in a limited edition of 100, with each edition signed and numbered by Mabari. Fifteen editions include a signed, limited-edition print.

“As an artist, one of my primary interests is finding intersections and connections, in exploring the potential inherent in collaboration across disciplines that at first glance can seem a universe apart. The very notion of trying to articulate and reflect upon some of the infinite possibilities packed into the word space or oceans really crystallized for me the singular importance of this kind of cross-disciplinary collaborative art-making”
