Description: "The City Within is a kinetic bookwork exploring cartography and fantastical anatomy. Juxtaposing bird’s eye maps and hand-drawn street-level maps with a rib cage of text centered around Montreal’s downtown core, The City Within overlays the heart of a city with the interior body of a city dweller. Both a bookwork and a sculptural object, this multi-layered book is able to be read and explored through many pathways. Using metaphoric imagery and a transforming book structure as an open-ended narrative, Natalie Draz combines traditional print media of intaglio and screenprinting with flag, tunnel book and pop-up structures." -- Publisher's website (viewed Jan. 20, 2017)
Notes: "The books were intaglio etchings and screenprints in 22pt Calibri. The images were etched on Rives Heavyweight paper and screenprinted on Mohawk paper." -- Case lid
