No Longer Six Feet Under by Gracia & Louise

No Longer Six Feet Under by Gracia & Louise

This is the second in the Looped series of five books. Each book stands alone but together they weave a tale. Each book has a scene/a story printed on the exterior of the slipcase. The accordion book carries the imagery created for the written narrative.

The effect that man has had on the environment is a continuing theme in this series of books. The narrative speaks of the ebb and flow of the sea, washing away and then leaving behind. Walking through the debris the writer says “As I had slept, Atlantis rose, or so it seemed. Bringing with it a band of subterranean garden-hose sea snakes and rusted shopping trolley chariots. Ring pulls, wrapper, waster, and gelato spoons too.”

About their work the artists have said – “The words of Gogol whisper in the ear, ‘the longer and more carefully we look at a funny story, the sadder it becomes.’ And so, we leave our scenes open-ended, inviting you to ponder and perhaps find that things are not always as they first appear.”

The books in this series are meant to be read again and again, to be viewed again and again. For with each reading a new question or view comes to mind.

Haby & Jennison: “Our only chance of a healthy, safe, joyous, and sustainable future is to return to being reciprocal with nature so nature can continue to look after us.”
