artists' books
The Aragó Press gallery contains images from a selection of books by various authors and made by hand by Arvon Wellen with the assistance of family members. Some books may be unique while others are limited editions as the ethos of the press is about ideas and the combination of text with images. The press has undertaken the publications of small editions in collaboration with individual poets and the images are printed by a combination of techniques including, lithography, woodcut, pochoir and digital.
