Yappo
Tsavala, Argyro (Iro) and Martin, Henry (2016) Yappo. In: Shaping the View - Understanding Landscape Through Illustration, 10-11 November 2016, Edinburgh College of Art, UK.
- Details
A practice based presentation/ discussion between the writer Henry Martin and illustrator and lecturer Iro Tsavala concerning their collaborative project YAPPO. The project was at that point work in progress and was treated as such during the time of the symposium.
One of the objectives of the collaboration was to explore parable and allegory in the book form through the production of a finished artist book, YAPPO. Together the two practitioners investigated the parallel development of text and images as a new method of constructing narrative and the deconstruction of a direct message with the intention to present a poetic and open-ended storyline.
One of the aims was to allow the reader input in the meaning of the work. The initial text written by Henry Martin prompted Iro to create work on location in the Scottish Highlands, as the landscape chimed with the tone of the text.
