<i><b>Welcome to Overland!</b></i> Where the California sun shines down
on synthetic grass and plastic oranges bedeck the trees all year round.
Steam billows gently from the chimney tops and the blue tarpaulin lake
is open for fishing… <br />
<br />
Hollywood set-designer George Godfrey has
been called on to do his patriotic duty and he doesn’t believe in
half-measures. If he is going to hide an American aircraft plant from
the threat of Japanese aerial spies he has an almighty job on his hands.
He will need an army of props and actors to make the Lockheed factory
vanish behind the semblance of a suburban town. Every day, his
“Residents” climb through a trapdoor in the factory roof to shift model
cars, shop for imaginary groceries and rotate fake sheep in felt-green
meadows. <br />
<br />
Overland is a beacon for the young women labouring
below it: Queenie, dreaming of movie stardom while welding sheet metal;
Kay, who must seek refuge from the order to intern “All Persons of
Japanese Ancestry”. Meanwhile, George’s right-hand Resident, Jimmy,
knows that High Command aren’t at all happy with the camouflage
project...<br />
<br />
With George so bewitched by his own illusion, might it risk confusing everybody – not just the enemy?<br />
<br />
<i>Overland</i>
is a book like no other -- to be read in landscape format. Based on
true events, it is a novel where characters' dreams and desires come
down to earth with more than a bump, confronting the hardships of life
during wartime. As surreal and playful as it is affecting and
unsettling, no-one other than Graham Rawle could have created it.Graham Rawlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00399788182028533260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406253476743395702.post-89214430167290624632016-01-18T00:57:00.000+00:002016-01-18T01:01:55.409+00:00Tri Pact Conference King's College, London.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I will be giving my inaugural-professorial-trying-to-sound-smart-ial lecture at 6pm on Wednesday April 15th. The title of the talk is <b>Writing With Scissors: A Sideways Look at Narrative Design.</b> If you're in the area, or feel like trekking across the country to hear me speak, the details are <b><a href="http://www.nua.ac.uk/visit/grahamrawle/" style="color: #e06666;">here on the university website</a>.</b>Graham Rawlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00399788182028533260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406253476743395702.post-10684580263634825712015-03-29T18:59:00.000+01:002015-03-30T00:03:45.720+01:00Association of Illustrators Industry InsightsI did an interview for the 'Members Only' section of the Association of Illustration website.

In his quest to compile a comprehensive encyclopaedia of
things he didn’t know, collage artist Graham Rawle invites you to provide him
with a fascinating fact to add to his archive. It can come from the world of
science, history or nature—or it could be something personal: your father’s hat
size, the opening hours of your local Costcutter, or what your Auntie Maureen
likes to spread on her toast. From the astounding to the trivial, all of the
collected facts will be gathered together in a giant online encyclopaedia,
providing a fountain of knowledge to delight and enthral all of humanity.</div>

At the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I Did Not Know

and an exciting range of magazines containing every word or image he or she
might need to create a special collage. Each completed piece of artwork will be
photographed for inclusion in an online archive and displayed during the
workshop in an ever-expanding wall frieze of little-known facts. Your
contribution can play a vital part in building this extraordinary archive: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Encyclopaedia of Things I Didn’t Know. </i></div>

Tomorrow I start teaching a week long Text and Image course at The Arvon Foundation in Totleigh Barton, Devon - nearest village, Sheepwash. I'll be teaching it with my co-tutor David Pearson, renowned book and book jacket designer. Our guest lecturer on Wednesday is the excellent Margaret Huber talking about visual diaries. The Arvon Foundation is a wonderful writer's residency retreat. It's always exhausting teaching a course, but incredibly rewarding. I love it there.Graham Rawlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00399788182028533260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406253476743395702.post-10344998050528811712014-07-25T23:17:00.000+01:002014-07-27T17:03:01.506+01:00Interview by Hardy Parker in The Loop<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In the latest issue of <a href="http://www.theloop-news.com/#Home-1"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>The Loop</b></span></a>, the excellent children's magazine 'for kids who are into everything and anything' there is an interview with me by Hardy Parker who came to the studio a few weeks ago for a chat. He has done an amazing job, all the more remarkable since he is only 10 years old. His questions were great and his reporting is very accurate. (I can almost hear my own annoying voice when I read it.) Amazing job. It's too long to include here, but do check it out.<br />
The interview was arranged by photographer Jenny Lewis who also took the picture of us. Jenny is a wonderful portrait photographer who came to the studio to take pictures of me and Margaret for her Hackney Studio project where she photographs (Hackney) artists in their studios, the next subject being suggested the previous one, which creates a lovely meandering chain of linked artist. Here are some of the ones she took of us, but you should visit her website to see <a href="http://jennylewis.net/"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>more of her work</b></span></a>.<br />

It's been and gone, but I've only just found out about it. In April 2014 <i>Woman's World </i>was part of an exhibition of artists' books iat the University of Johannesburg, South Africa: <i>Textures: an exhibition of text, textures and structure in artists' books</i>, curated by Jack Ginsberg, David Paton and Rosalind Cleaver. It included books by Tom Phillips, Jonathan Safran Foer, Ilia Zdanevich, Naum Gronvskii, Mark Danielewski, Hedi Kyle, Marion Bataille and David Pearson. You can download the catalogue <a href="http://www.academia.edu/7238345/TEXTures_an_exhibition_of_texts_textures_and_structure_in_artists_books" style="color: #e06666; font-weight: bold;">here</a>, see Jack Ginsberg's introduction to the exhibition on Youtube <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2G1SBvjMZo" style="color: #e06666; font-weight: bold;">here</a> and generally see more about it <a href="http://www.theartistsbook.org.za/view.asp?ItemID=159&tname=tblComponent1&oname=Features%20and%20Featured%20Books&pg=news&app=&flt="><span style="color: #e06666;">here</span></a>.Graham Rawlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00399788182028533260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406253476743395702.post-22210863291024620152014-07-25T18:50:00.002+01:002014-07-25T18:50:54.736+01:00Frank Damek - card collector<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2rwfyu8jz07jKle06nktVFxZg7vTtfkCAt5HTDWBQjtH7YDdZ_mXP5NalUtKyR5pRvB91k4YTLfoJRp-Na34f076eFoZ2_moyd3PuVdN-J8Wj4HVkWZ_usA_6Q9IqdCqsnXv38X2zXfA/s1600/cards.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2rwfyu8jz07jKle06nktVFxZg7vTtfkCAt5HTDWBQjtH7YDdZ_mXP5NalUtKyR5pRvB91k4YTLfoJRp-Na34f076eFoZ2_moyd3PuVdN-J8Wj4HVkWZ_usA_6Q9IqdCqsnXv38X2zXfA/s1600/cards.jpg" height="640" width="306" /></a><br />

Here's the original story of Frank Damek who collected a complete deck of found cards. It appeared in an 1870 Chicago newspaper and was the story that I used in my 1993 series Lying Doggo, but I'd never seen the original article. It inspired me to collect cards found on the street, and I've been on the lookout since then. Someone suggested that the story was probably made up by a journalist to fill space in the newspaper, but I prefer to think that it is true.<br />

I forgot to post this link to the talk I gave at Foyles back in April. (Illustration Rules?! - Launch of the AOI's Varoom 21 magazine with Viviane Schwarz and Phoebe Halstead. It was recorded and can be heard on Soundcloud via <a href="https://soundcloud.com/info-theaoi/varoom-21-graham-rawle"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>this link</b></span></a>. Though why anyone would want to listen, I'm not sure. I didn't, but then I heard it the first time.

Of particular interest is one where he is seen lying next to a copy of <i>Woman's World</i>. Mr Franco made an offer for the film rights to the book, but no agreement was reached. These pictures put me very much in mind of Norma, the protagonist in my story.<br />
