A Fragile Obsession by Mel Gale (Colossive Cartographies 69)

…in which Mel revisits her one-time habit of bidding for 1960s and 1970s studio glass on eBay – and never* spending more than she’d intended.

*OK, maybe sometimes.

Mel Gale is an artist, illustrator, printmaker and former vintage glass collector. She now collects houseplants instead.

A4, full colour, folded to A6. Also available as part of the six-issue Series Twelve set.

Colossive Cartographies use a simple pop-out format based on the Turkish map fold. We’re collaborating with creators including cartoonists, fine artists, poets, writers and photographers to bring an unpredictable range of visual practice into a hand-folded treat.
