Artist Statement:
Alliance and Peach are accordion-fold artist books hand-drawn from archival source material. The images and texts for Alliance are based on photos and ephemera from regional US anti-nuclear weapon and power movements, and for Peach from the funeral of anti-fascist activist Blair Peach and dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson's song in homage to him.
