Notes:
"Coastline is a book celebrating the coast of the British Isles. The main text is the statistic of how many centimetres per person there is of the coastline for England, Wales and Scotland. The screenprinted book has a line drawn map of my favourite bit of coast running across the pages from start to finish. Images are of things found at the beach including seaweed and chip forks and there are some names from the shipping forecast.The book is sewn as a single section pamphlet, in the shape of a tide-timetable booklet."--Artist's description of the work, from Centre for Fine Print Research website.
