Selections from a collaborative book by Laura Ortiz & De Villo Sloan

Cover of UNO by Laura Ortiz (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)

& De Villo Sloan (Auburn, New York, USA) (Oct.-Nov. 2019)

As part of our recent Asemic Front 2 collabs (October-November 2019), Laura Ortiz assembled a series of our thematically connected pieces into an artist's book. I have titled it UNO due to the frequency of the letters U-N-O in the text as well as the appearance of the word "one." I also believe "uno" represents what I perceive to be the seamless quality achieved in these compositions where our styles and thematic concerns are blended perfectly. Deepest thanks to Laura Ortiz for producing this sequence.
