Edited with introduction by Sue Webster. Foreword and poem by PJ Harvey.
This artist's book is a mixture of recipes and ideas embellished with illustrations and photographs. The recipes are by British artist Sue Webster (born 1966), better known as one half of an artist duo with Tim Noble; the illustrations are by both artists. The recipes came as a result of the artists' move to Folly Acres in the British countryside—an organic farm complete with vegetable garden, chickens and wild woodland. Webster had never cooked before but felt compelled to try her hand. "As I executed each idea I would … record each dish on my iPhone. Sometimes I got bored of the edible dish and would photograph the garbage in the bin … sometimes I would also sketch them out—so the book is a combination of recipes and ideas typed on an old German typewriter (until it finally exploded), drawings and crazy photographs."
