In Scrap Book, FF takes the saved magazine and newspaper clippings of a friend’s late mother, reconfigures them through cropping, flipping and rearranging and makes his slightly off version of a scrap book. Classic TVS, chairs and sixties fashion, an ad for a local cesspool service, assorted death announcements and promotions and a headline about a kid who makes money off troll clothes are just some of the highlights. Cover comes in four different colors to chose from. (6/13)
