Hi, I’m from the publisher. Thanks for your thoughtful review of the book!

As you say, Colter chose the stories for the book – all of the texts in the series are chosen by the artists.

A couple more images from the book:

Most of the images were created specifically for the book. A few Colter chose from existing works as these stories and their themes had been buzzing around in his head for a while. And the book had a reasonably long gestation process, so a few images created with the book in mind also appeared in shows in the run-up to publication.
