Six months earlier, in a burst of frustration over a long winter in New Jersey, I'd booked a houseboat on a lake somewhere in the Arizona wilderness. My cousin had taken a similar vacation and raved about it. Up to then, my nautical experience consisted of rowing a 12-ft. boat in New York City's Central Park.

Inspired by the burst stuffing of a deer on display in the Peabody Museum and some prints Rauschenberg did on deconstructed animal feed bags, Hulsey envisions a thinnish book whose unfolding mix of delicate vellums and sturdy opaque pages in sensual pinks and browns will mimic the layers of a dissected animal.
