El peregrino
Notes: One horizontal sheet folded to make four leaves. 10 by 26 inches, folding down to 7-1/2 inches. Edition of 100 copies. Colección del San Juan.
A horizontal pergamino (folded broadside) printed with a poem in three columns mimeographed from calligraphy. The cover is black paper decorated with the figure of a man made from paper, burlap, sand, seeds, and rocks. A mimeographed border of houses surrounds the poem. The design and illustrations are by Yohan Enrique Trujillo. The book is enclosed in a handmade rough cotton sack sewn with thick thread and decorated with collaged paper illustrations. The edition is signed by the author on a small collaged piece of paper.
An attractive work from the 1990s, notable for its incorporation of found natural objects. The design of the broadside shows the clear influence of Rolando Estévez, with its decorative border and handwritten text.
