INK ILLUSTRATION _ INVISIBLE LIBRARY

About

Illustration collective INK and Literary foundation Real Fits take residency at Tenderpixel Gallery for a month of unique events, talks and exhibition. The premise of the project will be the construction of a hidden library filled with books that have been alluded to in novels but have never actually existed... until now. Once selected and written, the hidden novels will have their covers illustrated by INK. The Invisible Library will ask best selling writers, cultural and musical figures, to be announced, and gallery attendees to write the opening or closing page of a ‘hidden novel.'Each book cover is not only the beginning of a story, but also a personal journey and porthole into the imagination. INK and Real Fits will host a programme combining illustration, creative writing, reportage and music. The four week schedule of workshops and events reaches out to a wide age range of individuals inviting them into literary London, the results of which will be published and exhibited. INK Illustration is a collective founded by Chloe Regan, Rachel Gannon and Fumie Kamijo at the Royal College of Art and is based in London. INK work individually and collaboratively on a wide range of commercial and personal projects including; curating, editorial work, retail, museum installations, craft work and exhibitions.
