Myrninerest

0/5 ( ratings)

This book presents reproductions of 108 postcards of hallucinatory portraits drawn by Madge Gill of her spirit-guide MYRNINEREST. All of the postcards were created by her in the 1940s. Each postcard has been reproduced in its original black and white pen and ink medium, and at the same size as the original postcard. The book is introduced with a comprehensive essay about Gill’s work by Roger Cardinal, an expert on Outsider art and on Madge Gill, as well as a short essay by Tibet and an appreciation by Boxer.

MYRNINEREST is bound in off-white Natuur cloth with a blocked image of MYRNINEREST on the front board; the title of the book, as well as its author and book imprint, is blocked on the spine, and THE SPHERES’ logo is blocked on the back cover. The book has printed end-papers featuring two different Madge Gill portraits of MYRNINEREST, coloured head- and tail-bands and a book ribbon. Measuring 5 ¼ x 7 ½ inches , and 1 inch thick, the paper we have used is an off-white and thick 150gsm Munken Pure paper. The book contains 232 pages, with all images printed on the recto, and with the verso blank, in order to stop any bleed-through of ink and in order to display images as atmospherically and beautifully as possible. We have had the images printed in a way to emphasise the haunted nature of Madge Gill’s work and her sidereal æsthetic.
