RIVERINE is an artist’s book and fragmented essay about a riparian landscape in New Orleans, LA called the ‘batture.’ With letterpress printed imagery and textures of industrial structures and nature that inhabit this landscape located between the man-made levee and Mississippi River along the margins of the city, the book’s text shifts and flows with each page-turn. RIVERINE pays homage to communities that have existed on the batture in homes on stilts throughout history and the liminal experience of living in a place that is neither water nor solid ground, undefinable and always changing. The book is housed in a protective chemise and slipcase box, which lend themselves to the hidden quality of the batture.
