- Summary:
-
A collaborative collection of twenty-nine prints showing the species, habitats and ecological communities that are under threat in the Pittwater, Warringah and Manly areas of the Northern Beaches of Sydney. The prints are accompanied by artists' statements and scientific descriptions and vary in style and technique (including etching, photosensitive media, waterless lithography, linocut, collagraph, drypoint, and woodcut), with text page folios folded around each print. This unbound format also enables a wide variety of papers and layouts to be used. The book was published to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Warringah Printmakers Studio, with support of local environmental groups, the North Head Sanctuary and the Australian Wildlife Conservancy.
