The special edition of Littoral States features a unique, handmade collection of prints by Belgian-based artist Tamar Kasparian. Working in close collaboration with musicians Sarah Pagé & Patrick Graham from the inception of the project, Tamar created numerous original works using her mixed media approach. The artworks have been printed on 250 gram paper. The limited edition of 70 copies was crafted by Tamar, book-binder Tatsuya Inuikawa (La Rivière Sèche) and graphic designer Mona Habibizadeh. Each copy was given an individual pencil/ ink personalization and is signed by the artist.

"Drawing while listening to music is both object and process. Like a dance of the hands, each dynamic, each gesture has its importance. This process is a form of creation that does not place the eye at the center but the hand. There is in this procedure uncontrollability, chance, undisciplined flaws… an eventuality that leaves room for creation.

For the limited edition of Littoral States, each drawing corresponds to one of the pieces of the album and opens a door to another universe linked to the previous one. The form of the booklet, created in collaboration with Tatsuya Inuikawa's La Rivière Sèche bookbinding workshop, reflects this link between each piece by offering multiple combinations of drawings between them." - Tamar Kasparian
