Most people know of Swoon through her intricate paper cut-outs and hand pulled block prints of realistically-rendered street people which have appeared throughout New York for the better part of the last decade. Usually seen in a state of decay, weathered by the elements, they are powerful time-based public artworks that only get more potent as they age. Published to accompany the artist’s highly anticipated 2008 exhibition at Deitch’s Long Island City project space, this first monograph documents work exhibited between 2005 and 2007, as well as collaborations created in Russia, Ukraine and throughout the United States.
