Leporello No. 10

Kay Rosen has collaborated with LL'Editions to create Duck in the Muck, as part of their ongoing Leporello series.
Inhabiting a space between book and paper sculpture, Duck in the Muck calls attention to the irresponsible behaviour of the fossil fuel and chemical industries and its supporters as they cause havoc with nature. The distorted variations of "quack" reflect genetic damage to living species by oil and chemical spills, and as a worldwide disaster, the multiple spellings allude to the cries of voices from populations around the globe.
LL'Editions has invited several international artists to contribute to the Leporello series, including Heimo Zobernig, Micah Lexier and Fiona Banner. Each artist is given carte blanche, restricted only by the accordian format and its ten panels.
