Summary:
The poem is one of a suite of sonnets written from the point of view of a female Air Force physician deployed to Iraq. FUBAR is printed on Rives BFK paper in a modified orihon (accordion) format that allows the poem to be read as the viewer moves around the piece, creating a physical interaction. The prints in the body of the book are digitized from original monotypes and laid over with serigraphy. The colophon is wrapped with original unique monotypes, is wired, and is meant to echo the shape of roadside munitions. The cover of the book is wrapped with Combat Paper made from the shredded uniforms of veterans, commissioned from Shotwell Paper of California.
