This is the third and last update on my collaboration with Bridgette Guerzon Mills and Jen Wordon. We have been working together on an art project since early 2009 and have recently completed our pieces. You can see my contributions to Bridgette's plaster pages here and Jen's metal pages here. And below you will find a complete set of images from Contexture, my book of brittle, vintage paper pages. Please enlarge the photos for a detailed view.

Thank you for sharing this marvelous piece, Seth.
Ooooh I just want to dive right into all that texture. Great collaboration.
I love the texture and feel to all of these pages...I love your blues Seth! And your choice of lettering and stitches. The fabric parts that lap over the side of the page.
Yummy.
Awesome pages, I love the texture!
Very, very cool. Thanks for sharing this.
I recently found your blog, and really enjoy the content.
This collaboration is fantastic!

There's so much to see here Seth. I just want to touch that book, it's so tactile.
Surface sublime indeed!
This is a fabulous group effort.
Another home run Seth!
Whoever thought to put you 3 together is brilliant - what an amazing marriage of talent! WOW - great piece! Congrats.
What a brilliant masterpiece and fun collaboration! I'm sure you'll cherish this artwork very much. You've all been so inventive and creative.
let me hold it....I want to feel it...to weigh it....to take a closer look!
Love this piece and thanks for sharing with us.
I would like to hear about the items used in creating the piece, one area looks like a hanging stone, another corrugated cardboard??
Thank you, Patq
Whoooooooooooooo!! These are great. I love every single one and will be back to savour them some more. Good work, all. Thanks.
It is so wonderful to see all of these pages together like this! What a treasure this book is, so filled with the mysteries that we have...hiding in our souls. roxanne
even without the labels I could pick out your fondness for blue! Love, love them.
Just amazing, Seth. really cool.
Congrats, and thanks for sharing!

I'm so glad we get to see this here. Yet again I am grateful for this blogging community.
I'm so excited to hear the books will be in Chicago this month- I can't wait to hear the details and to be able to see these in person!
I just love this collaboration of varied materials, thoughts and ideas interwoven together. Your work, and that of Bridgette's and Jen's are terrific together. What a wonderful collaborative project and so grateful that now others can see it in person in Chicago! What a treat they will have. Thanks for showcasing these pages in your book Seth- they are just fantastic! Congratulations again on the upcoming exhibit!
What an amazing book thanks so much for sharing. So much texture a book after my own heart. Thanks Seth!
There's nothing much to say except, "Totally awesome!"
really interesting to see these artist's work side by side. everyone's voice comes through loud and clear. :) oh, to be able to see these in person...
Thanks so much Seth for your creativity, patience and willingness to do this project. I miss corresponding with both you and Jen on a regular basis! Really looking forward to seeing our work on display next week. I will take lots of pictures!
I like the title ConTEXTure.. with a big X...and all the textured pages are wonderful!
Wow! Fantastic collaboration!
Incredible work!
Once again you have another awesome collaboration under your belt. Congrats on finishing and having your collaborative efforts shown in Chicago's Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival.
Each of these pages is a real work of art. As always, I am SO impressed.
I'm taken by the use of words and letters in this piece. It's such a big (in the emotional sense) work, and the languge symbols help me to move through the pages without feeling stranded or overwhelmed. Believe me, I know how difficult it is to accomplish this sort of movement. Kudos to all.
yet another great body of work!
I would love to feel the texture. I can only imagine how beautiful it is in person. Wow!
