£125.00

London: Coracle Press, 1980
25.5 x 10.8cm, 24pp plus card covers and dust jacket. Artist's book based on eight different objects created by the artist out of found wood/bones on which he etched marks using focussed sun’s rays and other indirect methods. (Each of the eight objects was dedicated to a different person encountered during Ackling's time on the Scottish Outer Hebridian islands). Ackling created silkscreens of each object (in up to 40 colours to recreate exactly the original object) and had the shapes diecut and tipped into each page. This is one of only 170 signed and numbered copies. Very good apart from a minor flaw at the top of the spine of the dustjacket. Scarce.
