Dan Wood - Gap in the Hedge (Signed Dummy Book w/Signed Prints)
Signed & numbered dummy book (2/3) of Dan Wood’s Gap in the Hedge, which was eventually published by Another Place Press, 2018
This, the second of 3 dummy books, was made in February, 2018, a few months before publication.
The book comes with two 7x5 inch signed work prints that were used in the final edit/sequencing of the book. The prints are particularly relevant as they are the 2 images that were recently acquired by The National Museum of Wales for inclusion in the large scale Valleys exhibition, 2024.

“Loosely based around nostalgia, ‘Gap in the Hedge’ reflects on a journey I used to make with my Mother to visit relatives in the Rhondda Valley, every Saturday when I was a small boy. It was my first taste of a road trip and I can recall almost every inch of the journey. I’d sit there in the front seat of my Mother’s little red car utterly absorbed and mesmerised by the forests, terraced houses and falling rock warning signs. The journey seemed to take forever, but we were only ever around 30 minutes from home.”
