Content Description

Prints "produced by students for the poet Lucas de Lima's visit to Hamilton College on April 1, 2016. Excerpts from de Lima's book of poems, WET LAND, were typeset and printed letterpress on torn-paper collages made from a de-accessioned edition of Leonardo da Vinci's anatomical sketches. In an edition of 75, no two prints are the same. Students involved in the production of these prints include Rachel Alatalo '18, Natalie Burkhardt '18, Joseph Rupprecht '18, Reilly Shew '19, Cornelia Smith '19, Diana Suder '19, and Anjanae Williams '18, under the direction of Emma Reynolds '17 and supervision of Assistant Professor Andrew Rippeon (English and Creative Writing).
