re-cover project

Re-cover project is an art project that consists in the creation of alternative covers for existing books. There are no pre-set criteria for the choice of books, other than being a reflection of our interests and references, and the featured photographs or snapshots are taken while out and about, only very rarely with a specific title in mind. This lends the process a spontaneous and experimental character that resurfaces in the playfulness of the final work.

Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog - Dylan Thomas

This drawing was made in 2006, in Amsterdam.

Dylan Thomas was a Welsh poet, short-story writer and script writer for film and radio.
Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog was first published in 1940. The title refers to James Joyce's Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
