This is her first monograph, featuring a collection of off-beat, imaginative color studies populated with birds, animals and irreverent, sometimes naughty personae. Short, laugh-out-loud prose accompanies each of the portraits and vivid scenes. Her dog sleeps on a Ukranian-gold and blue rug; her raven vacuums the house; absurd characters from movies and art stand in for obnoxious or dreamy colors; and the birds – so many birds – sing of freedom.

Southern California in the early 1970s was an island of its own creation: a mixture of surf, sea, and concrete highways winding around an ever-changing cultural climate, it challenged assumptions of the definition of art. Crawford chooses his backgrounds with a sense of austerity as a means for introducing these hard-edged shapes and using them as the building blocks for his own language.

Summary:
Presented by ETH Studio Jan De Vylder, Carrousel Confessions Confusion is a series revealing both the authors’ personal interests and the studio’s own pursuits in the form of confessions. Landscape architect Christophe Girot is the featured personage in this volume. Girot writes about his experiences growing up in England and France, and how the juxtaposition of the regions’ landscapes already happened in his mind, long before he had ever heard or studied anything about it. These contradictory aesthetic and cultural values drove him to study landscape architecture someplace else entirely – Berkeley, California, in the 1980s – where he found his own values challenged anew.
