“Peg’s Archives” is a book object exploring the artist’s relationship with her grandmother’s extensive documentation of their family history. All images are Monotypes and the text is printed using Xerox Transfer. The book is bound into a wooden box reminiscent of a library card catalog, a nod to Peg’s career as a research librarian. In addition to the one-of-a-kind original, a paperback trade edition of the text and images is also available.
