Visual Books

Artist Statement


My primary art practice has been in book form since 1980 and spans many media, from offset and digital printing to sculpture and site-specific installation. Many of my visual books utilize photography and incorporate frequently overlooked details of day-to-day living -- discrete moments unbound by daily existence. www.scottmccarneyvisualbooks.com
