Parts Unknown
A collaboration between Jessica Spring and photographers who lived in her home over a century ago, Parts Unknown explores the mystery of a box of glass negatives discovered in the artist’s attic. These photographs document a new leisure class in a city moving beyond its frontier origins. Housed in a clamshell box, the book unfolds into four accordion chapters that converge at both a literal and historical crossroads, transporting the viewer to the 1890s. The images are ink-jet printed on handmade abaca, varnished, and bound in panels of Rising museum board. The text is hand set and letterpress printed in an edition of 24.
