FAQs

WHAT IS THE NOVEL PRINT ARCHIVE?

A monthly print, cut from a novel. A papercut is made by hand — cut, composed, and translated into an archival giclée print. Each work is cut from its source novel — not illustrating it, but inhabiting its world. The print is signed, numbered, and revealed upon opening. Volume I unfolds across twelve editions.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Join by 20th → edition closes → dispatched → artwork revealed.

WHAT DO I RECEIVE?

Each edition arrives as three objects.

  • A signed and numbered A5 archival giclée print
  • A private letter from the artist on the novel, the making, and the edition's place in the volume.
  • An archive marker card — embossed, numbered, forming a permanent record of the edition.

WHY IS HE ARTWORK HIDDEN?

The Archive is designed as a private act of discovery. Each edition is revealed upon opening. It is never shown publicly before it arrives.
