Susan Lowdermilk
Power Play
Power Play is structured as a six-panel Jacob’s Ladder toy. The book and protective wrapper were printed entirely from woodcuts in black and gray, which were created by the artist. Images of rock, paper and scissors appear in each panel with a background carved to imitate wood grain.
