One of my favourite books this year has to be The Night Life of Trees. The book is a series of silkscreened illustrations (some nice photos here) of lushly patterned plants and animals accompanied by short mythical poetry and prose.
The illustrations are by three artists from the Gond tribe of India. Limited to a print-run of 1000, each page is effectively a beautiful limited-edition silkscreen print.
Here’s a video that shows the process. The subtitles are small, but the images are self-explanatory.
