Hold Still by Kim Laurenti

$20.00

Hold Still by Kim Laurenti 

188 pages, black-and-white, perfect bound

ISBN 978-1-959899-03-7

First printed June 2023

Hold Still by Kim Laurenti is the first book in an ongoing series published by SAW spotlighting artists and writers based in Florida. 

Crack the spine and enter a luscious world of plants and the quiet delights of daily life in a small family over the course of a year. 

Praise from SAW Director and New York Times Bestselling author, Tom Hart:

"If I've given you a square lens, that renders everything deliciously soft and in a generously uncomplicated greyscale and said you could use it once a day and gave you a direction to point, and it began to feel like handwriting… and if in that handwriting was one person's daily life, sensitive drawings in pencil, about searching gently through the maze of existence, would it matter if the person were kind, and every drawing were so beautifully composed as to feel classical, and if the brightness of the sun came bursting from behind the Florida flora, even in black and white? Would it matter - because you felt alive, enriched as if you had sung to, or had poetry read to you, or were near a fire that is full of memories?"

Please Note: Because SAW has a small fulfillment team, processing time may take 1-2 weeks before you receive your shipping information. For any questions regarding your order, please contact us.

We here at Sequential Artists Workshop (SAW) acknowledge that our studio is located in the original homeland of the Potano, Timucua, Muscogee, Seminole, Miccosukee, and many more Nations who trade and migrated through these lands and waters we now call Gainesville. More specifically, we acknowledge that SAW sits on the original lands of the Potano people, a Timucua speaking society that was victimized by colonial disease, manifest destiny, and abject violence. SAW acknowledges its obligation to honor the past, present, and future indigenous residents and cultures of Florida.

Thanks for being here.
