JOAO RUAS: MINION
2011
3.5 x 5.5 inches, 44 pages
Leatherbound hardcover with blind deboss and obi
Minion was produced to look and feel as close to the actual artist sketchbook as possible, with special attention paid to the form of the book and the feel of the paper. A special edition of 10 copies was produced taking this idea even further: each page was treated with various glazes, washes, magnesium, tape and sandpaper to make this edition even more indistinguishable from the actual artifact. This edition of 10 also included an original drawing.
