I Thought About It in My Head and I Felt It in My Heart but I Made It with My Hands

Rob Ryanâ€™s artâ€”delicate, colorful, playful, and evocativeâ€”brings sophisticated layers of emotion to simple vignettes with universal appeal.

In this, the first book of his collected artwork, Rob Ryan combines a childlike enthusiasm for color and craft with a romanticâ€™s compulsion to explore love, desire, fantasy, and melancholy. Working principally in papercuts and stencils, and often mixing startling artistry with a raconteurâ€™s turn of phrase, he is able to craft an entire world within his artworkâ€”from the slender and telling movement of characters in his narratives to the gentle complexity of fantastical flora and fauna in his irreverent silhouettes. Each workâ€”whether itâ€™s a stand-alone screen print, a single papercut from one of his intoxicating childrenâ€™s stories, or design objects from egg cups to Victorianâ€“style porcelain dog figurinesâ€”is a fairy tale in itself.

Bright and engaging, and edited in close collaboration with the artist, this beautiful monograph brings together work from every facet of Ryanâ€™s career to date, andâ€”through an accompanying text written specially for the bookâ€”explores the themes, styles, palettes, and preoccupations present throughout. Playing on familiar oppositions of isolation and creativity, alienation and warmth, even innocence and experience, Ryanâ€™s work strikes the perfect balance between humor and vulnerability, wit and wisdom.
