| "'Occupy' is a response to the events currently unfolding in contemporary history. The book itself unfolds as step by step is opens to reveal a grid of squares onto which four stitched book placards an be assembled to 'occupy' the space. Each of these placards uses text sourced from Greek protest posters and contains DIY instructions printed on handmade paper on hoe to occupy a public space and create new global social systems. The loose red threads connect place (Greece) and ideas over space and time." Heather Matthew
