This is a collaborative project by 9 Stones Artists and book artist Ciara Healy.

Artist Anthony Lyttle uses woodcuts as an integral part of his practice. In sharing
his specific knowledge through workshops, the group was introduced to a new
skill and visual language. The outcome, a book of hand-printed woodblock prints,
reflects on a relationship to their practice and place of work.
