Artist, Mary Heebner, is scheduled for an exhibit in either the fall or spring semester in Special Collections cases of the Leatherby Libraries. It will consist of the books that she produced under the imprint simplemente maria press. This installation will emphasize the process, how idea becomes sketches, then prototypes, then hopefully a finished piece. All of Heebner's book projects develop from a series of drawings and paintings, which in turn were often sparked by an experience in a physical place. She keeps journal notes and sketches while traveling on writing assignments to countries as diverse as Iceland, Patagonia and Cambodia, and these jottings are an essential bridge to help re-connect Heebner back to her studio after time away.
