Home Of The Palindromes

This is a journal I designed, titled “Home of the Palindromes”, published by ECRITUREartefacts. The design is also available on a mug, jigsaw puzzle, and iPhone case. It features a list of place names which also happen to be palindromes. ECRITUREartefacts is my wee novelty store, packed with strange and eclectic things. In French, écriture means “writing”. In his 1953 book “Writing Degree Zero”, Roland Barthes discusses writing in terms of style, dismissing assertions of writing as neutral or blank since all writing engenders some discursive element in reflecting an individual’s worldview. In writing, Derrida saw eternal slippage and an illusory trace: writing as “différance”. This store allows me to return to my first love of drawing, and to pen pithy things that get made into lovely glassware, aprons, coasters, pillows, totes, greeting cards, phone cases, and laptop sleeves. These are not-so-serious accoutrements for the serious writer. It’s the poetic monostitch refashioned into something emblematic.
