Product story

Stibbon has accompanied research expeditions in the Arctic and Antarctic Oceans, lived on the rim of a volcano in Hawai’i and has made several field trips to Norway, Iceland and Stromboli, off the coast of northern Sicily. This book presents the sketches she made during her travels. They have the immediacy of work made at speed using materials to hand, such as volcanic ash, produced in difficult circumstances and often frozen conditions.
