Caroline Jupp
Duration
Out-of-print books, cult novels and films are often the catalyst for Caroline Jupp’s DIY publishing projects. Documentary processes – conversation, observation, recording and collecting – are used to form publications. These texts are brought together to create new archives or libraries, such as her major participatory project, Library of Unwritten Books, inspired by Beat writer, Richard Brautigan, which involved over 800 interviews with people about the book they would like to write. Current writing projects include Goat Observations made at a London city farm and Walking Through Walls, an ongoing document of film scenes featuring women walking. Jupp’s latest publication, Fifty-Three Husbands, is a journey made in the company of a weak-bladdered spirit, guided by Hiroshige’s series of woodcut prints, The Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido.
