"Mackerel Run” is panorama concertina book form with imagery conveying the sensation of a glittering school of mackerel flashing below the waves on a sunny day. The cut panels swivel to add motion to the pages when opened, reflecting the motion of the school of fish. The seaweed impression is made by directly printing from inked-up pieces of seaweed, then the Rives BFK paper is painted with acrylic and the fish shapes are stamped into the wet paint using a hand-cut rubber stamp.
