Winner of the 2014 Van Wylen Library Altered Book Award Artist Statement: The title of the book "The Flickering Torch MysterY", for me dictates the form of the book, that being a flashlight. The images and text of the book become less important than the physical form, but still remain relevant to the overall reception of the book. The title, images and text have a humorous relationship with the form, one that can be read in direct relationship with the title, and one that can give a metaphorical interpretation of the book as a tool for illumination.
