While a Rome Prize Fellow in Design at the American Academy in Rome, Tricia Treacy created this artist book as part of a multi-layered platform to investigate the relationship between art, design, and collaborative writing. Various voices contributed to a cross writing format, creating an interdisciplinary and international exchange. ... In developing a graphic language to convey these themes, and dwell upon the thresholds between public and private, Treacy drew inspiration from the Roman cityscape. Mail slots, which beckon passersby to imagine private realms hidden from prying eyes, shutters, and painted urban walls offered conceptual and format elements in visual collages and motifs that echo throughout the book. The title of the book, slot, deliberately suggests, not only these physical thresholds, but also gaps in social intercourse that trigger conversations. This 72 page nonlinear book is animated by narration, superimposition, comparative research, and open dialogue" -- Artist's description. 500 $a Edition of 70 copies. 500 $a An experimental artist book that taps into the perspectives, dialogs, and insights gathered by Treacy from various members of the creative community of the American Academy in Rome. The 2017-18 Rome Prize fellows as well as Rome-based artists and authors were asked to pause and reflect upon the theme of privacy or matters unspoken. Their contributions have been juxtaposed and interwoven to create random connections and an unconventional visual narrative. The process of Risograph printing with master printer, Jo Frenken (Charles Nypels Lab in Maastricht, Netherlands) initiated a meshing technique to communicate this web of private narratives. In place of reiteration, the project uses gaps and overlaps between the different perspectives as a structural principal.

Geronimo Johnson, Joanna Klink, Antonella Lattanzi, Johanna Lobdell, Kevin Moch, Matteo Nucci, Elizabeth Cowan White, and Arnisa Zeqo. 500 $a "Printing began while on a short residency at the Charles Nypels Lab in the Jan van Eyck Academie in the Netherlands during November 2017 on an A2 Risograph Duplicator in collaboration with Jo Frenken. It was intentionally not sewn together to enable the reader to change the sequence and narrative. Wrapped in a custom case made by John DeMerrit.
